This is a great summary and video but I kinda wanna fight whoever decided to not make Dorian blond. I won’t, but I’m disappointed nonetheless.

[@notthatguy4703]

I like him better as dark instead of some blondie lol

[@samirahtss]

I also expected Dorian to be blonde and not because I think blonde is better but because that is how he is described in the book.

[@sophaloaf56]

@@notthatguy4703 It’s about the symbolism 😔

[@jonashee8794]

omg that's what i was thinking dorian was blond af

[@harveydodd8803]

Just in case, remember to keep your chin tucked and your hands up to guard your face. Create space with a stiff jab and watch the shoulders for defense. Good luck.

I'm not going to lie...I searched this after watching 500 days of summer. I thought it would be some sort of deeper meaning to the plot. It probably is, but just Sonic booming over my head.

Didn’t summer also live an indulgent lifestyle? Not as indulgent as Dorian by any means.

[@amandalong220]

Really wish you had made the animation blonde like he is supposed to be. Wilde made is overtly clear that he was a blue-eyed blonde. For a book that centers around Dorian's looks, I would have expected a more accurate portrayal. "Yes, he was certainly wonderfully handsome, with his finely curved scarlet lips, his frank blue eyes, his crisp gold hair." "The scarlet would pass away from his lips and the gold steal from his hair." "Dorian Gray lifted his golden head from the pillow" "Suddenly she caught a glimpse of golden hair and laughing lips, and in an open carriage with two ladies Dorian Gray drove past." "Was it to become a monstrous and loathsome thing, to be hidden away in a locked room, to be shut out from the sunlight that had so often touched to brighter gold the waving wonder of its hair?" "Gold hair, blue eyes, and rose-red lips - they all were there."

matric 2020 anyone?

[@classicalperformances8777]

he doesn't love her becaue of her acting talent, but because she is great and he feels great by association. she loses her lustre as soon Dorian's buddy dissaproves of her; shes not great anymore and DOrian, typical narcissist, doesn't want his great him be associated with her lesser her. how often guys dump their girlfriends because their male buddy didnt approve...

[@iteungwelah]

Why is basil bald and dorian not blonde

[@firmovaldez9244]

I just finished the book and James Vane was not a character. Did I happen to read another version of the book?

[@adamcraig2575]

They refer to him as “Jim” for a good portion of the book, because Jim is a nickname for James

This is certainly not the spirit to explain literature.... maybe a football match recap, yes.

[@bubbercakes528]

I couldn’t finish this book as Dorian is such a loathsome creature who deserves neither respect nor love. You cannot blame anyone for his fall. It would be like reading a book about Hitler. He proceeds to bring others down with him. The book may be wonderful bit Dorian is too loathsome to read about.

Good book other than the gay undertones in the beginning and during Basil’s dialogue that are super uncomfortable to read

Good comment other than the homophobia and ignorance. We’d have had more great work from Oscar Wilde if he hadn’t DIED from homophobia. (Google it.)
