Description
It chronicles the true story of the renowned playwright₂s courtroom clashes with the Marquess of Queensberry and the tragic turn his life takes because of it. Peter Finch (Network) gives a fascinating, BAFTA-winning portrayal of the brilliant Irish writer, who brings a libel suit against the Marquess after he accuses Wilde of seducing his son, Lord Alfred Douglas. The hearing results in Wilde₂s own scandalous trial and prosecution for gross indecency and sodomy.
