Dorian Gray (2009)

Post by iHaunt » Sun Aug 16, 2009 2:48 pm

Did anyone know about this remake of Dorian Gray? Have some of you seen the classic in 1970? Well, I've never seen it myself. I would love to add it to my Netflix, but I didn't find it on Netflix. :( I wanted to see 1970 version, but I added 2009 version to my queoe.

DVD Description:
A corrupt young man somehow keeps his youthful beauty eternally, but a special painting gradually reveals his inner ugliness to all.

Release date in UK on September 9th, 2009 - but not find a release date in US! :?


The following titles I found online:

The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945)
Dorian Gray (1970)

The correct title is "A Picture of Dorian Gray." I can't swear to it, but I think the version you are refferring to is the Dan Curtis productins version, and you might be able to purchase yourself a copy from the Dan Curtis web site. I don't know the url off the top of my head, but if you google "Dan Curtis Productions" you should have no problem. I purchased a multi DVD box set from that web site which included "Dr. Jeckyl & Mr Hyde," "Dracula" "A Picture of Dorian Greay" and "The Turn of a Screw"

I wish to see "Dorian Gray" 1970 - but I refuse to purchase it if that is really good... I heard it has some sexual explicit and too graphic nudity. I really didn't mind it. And also, some people say that it has some crude sexual content, so what does it mean? :roll:

There was nothing sexualy explicit or nudity in the Dorian Gray that I saw. Dan Curtis productions specialized in made-for-tv movies, which were excelent, but had to be leagal to broadcast on television.

Well, I wish to rent and see the 1970 version first before buying it if I do like or not.... But no worries because I already added Dorian Gray remake of 2009 to my Netflix list. :D Ad, I have to work my way to find another DVD online where I can rent that is easily to find, or maybe they have everything that Netflix doesn't always have some of them in their online store. :?
