The Trials of Oscar Wilde
(1960)|
Peter Finch delivers a bravura performance (for which he won a BAFTA Award) as the flamboyant Irish poet-playwright. The story, based largely on court records, recounts Wilde's sodomy trial stemming from his love affair with Lord Douglas (John Fraser). Sentenced to five years in prison, the once-celebrated writer finds his reputation -- and his spirit -- shattered. The movie also won a Golden Globe for Best English-Language Foreign Film.
