HE SAID: You enjoy. I have to work.
SHE SAID: A sad but enlighten film. I hadn’t known a lot of what transpired in Wilde’s life after his arrival in prison. The film tells the tale of a conflicted man who sought redemption but couldn’t resist the pull of his temptations. Rupert Everett gives a wonderful portrayal of Wilde. SCORE: 6.5 (On a scale of 1 to 10)
