Review of The Trials of Oscar Wilde (1960) by David B — 29 Mar 2010
Must have caused a bit of a stir in 1960. This is not a bad film with some lovely scenes towards the beginning. Once it moves into the courtroom it comes to a grinding halt apart from a lively performance by James Mason.
The summing up becomes preachy and heavy going. It does painfully show Wilde sealing his own fate.
