The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945)

In Victorian London, a young and strikingly handsome Dorian Gray poses for a portrait by a friend. When a hedonistic Lord suggests that youth and beauty are all that matter in life, Dorian wishes for eternal youth, leaving the portrait to bear the burden of age and sin. As Dorian plunges into a life of excess, his ageless appearance conceals a terrifying secret hidden in the increasingly grotesque painting.
