When London artist Basil Hallward (Ben Chaplin) paints a portrait of the young and beautiful Dorian Gray (Ben Barnes), the subject is so taken with his own image that he declares he'd do anything to keep his looks -- even if it meant selling his soul. The plot thickens when his wish is granted, but even the painting can't mask the true nature of Dorian's inner beauty. Colin Firth co-stars in this period drama based on the novel by Oscar Wilde.
