Oscar Wilde Classic on Film
“The Picture of Dorian Gray” (Warner Archive) is the 1945 adaptation of the 1891 Oscar Wilde novel starring Hurd Hatfield, George Sanders, Donna Reed, and Angela Lansbury. As the years pass, Gray (Hatfield) never ages, but a portrait of him he keeps hidden reflects not only age but the horrifying effects of Gray’s life of hedonism and evil. George Sanders plays the Machiavellian Lord Henry Wotton, who leads Gray into a life of perdition and periodically issues forth sardonic comments about life and the pleasures it offers. Twenty-year-old Angela Lansbury portrays Sibyl Vane, a music hall singer who falls under the spell of Gray’s charm.<br /><br />The film, shot at M-G-M during its fascination with reverent literary adaptations, is beautifully filmed by cinematographer Harry Stradling and the film’s overall production design is lush and detailed. However, the film never quite captures the horrific nature of Gray’s moral deterioration. Hatfield is a good looking actor and fills the casting prescription on that note, but seems an attractive showpiece in a movie whose stylish production overshadows his performance. A variation of the “Faust” tale, “The Picture of Dorian Gray” is set in 19th-century drawing rooms and stately homes rather than in dark streets or remote laboratories like the Universal horror pictures of the 1930s. Because Gray is not cinema’s typical “monster,” the film comes off as horror-lite . Sanders easily steals every scene he’s in and believably suggests a man who not only thrives on flaunting society’s taboos, but is excited to lead a younger man into depravity.<br /><br />Bonus features on the Blu-ray release include commentary by Angela Lansbury, the Oscar-winning short “Stairway to Light,” and the Oscar-winning cartoon “Quiet Please!”
