Wilde (1997) - Brian Gilbert

There were so many in-jokes I probably didn't get due to not having read many of Oscar Wilde's works. The only ones I am familiar with are The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Importance of Being Earnest, which I did get the references to.
Stephen Fry was the perfect choice to play the playwright himself and was very believable in the role. Jude Law was acceptable as his young, spoilt lover. Overall, a fairly average film.

Foreword

Hello. 

I am an avid film fan. I go to see films at the cinema, a lot.

I have began this page to write reviews of films that I have seen.

I warn you now, I won't be posting religiously on a daily basis, probably not even after every film I see, but I shall do my best.

My favourite films include Scott Pilgrim Vs The World (2010) - Edgar Wright, Terminator 2 (1991) - James Cameron, The Mummy (1999) - Stephen Sommers, Citizen Kane (1941) - Orson Welles and Dorian Gray (2009) - Oliver Parker. These are not my only favourites, just a small taste of what you can come to expect from this blog.

I will begin posting proper reviews once the year of 2013 begins.

Love Matt x

PS I also make films, so I may post about them and how I'm doing with the making of those, plus I might post the links to them.
I got Final Cut Pro X for Christmas, so at the moment, every little thing I've done over the last year or two is being edited in a big file, so that might be good.
