 Uninspired Version of Dorian Gray November 28, 2007
gobirds2 (New England)
This film seems rather hokey compared to the earlier theatrical version. The production is uninspired and lacks depth into the character of Dorian Gray. The DVD transfer is not very good either but that really doesn't seem to matter. This film can't match the cast of George Sanders, Hurd Hatfield, Donna Reed, and Angela Lansbury of the 1945 version. Shane Briant's performance as Dorian Gray is no match to Hurd Hatfield's outstanding enigmatic performance. Hurd Hatfield owns the cinematic version of Dorian Gray.
Disappointing DVD October 5, 2007
B. Chandler (Floida)
The purchase shipping, handling and arrival was fine. However, I was really disappointed with the DVD itself; it seems to be a not so good Stage play version with a soap opera look and feel. Next I'll try the original 1945 version and see if it's any better.

As in all of Oscar Wildes work this had an excellent story line. The acting was wonderful and it followed the book quite well. This is a must see for anyone that values good literature.

I'm just another customer who was very disappointed to discover that my new DVD of this title (as well as the replacement DVD MPI sent me) had such appallingly bad audio (the actors sound as if they're speaking through wads of cotton). It's also worth noting that MPI's DVD of "Turn of the Screw" has the exact same problem. Beware!
