Ridiculously shallower than the original

For those who have read the original work, this version of Dorian Gray's portrait is really rubbish and low taste, directly pulling the beauty of the spirit in the novel to the height of flesh and lust. . For Dorian Gray in the novel, he only describes the extravagance of his life, and does not describe his indulgence and sensuality in great detail. It is all described through Howard's words. There are too many comparison movies. The film makes Dorian's feelings for Sybil like a playboy abandoning his frame, and Howard's feelings for Dorian like a horny gay idiot. It turned out to be the love of art, but it was full of sensuality. It was really disgusting. The movie obviously wanted to sublimate Dorian Gray's image. From the beginning, he kept highlighting his kindness and purity, and then tried his best to describe his lewdness, and then wrote again. He longed for redemption. But the film still fails to reflect the profound changes in the male protagonist's thinking. The props team is really boring. There is a chapter about gems, spices and fabrics... It's very gorgeous, but the crew is really poor. Anyway, these three points are all for the male protagonist, because he is so handsome, although not the blonde in the novel, but more beautiful.

    I don't know what to say, but after reading the book, it is quite clear

    This change makes people feel embarrassed. The characters will become bloody if the plot is made up. This is the truth that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
