The Trials of Oscar Wilde chronicles the true story of the renowned playwright’s 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 (Lionel Jeffries,
The Quatermass Xperiment) after he accuses Wilde of seducing his son, Lord Alfred Douglas (John Fraser,
Isadora). The hearing results in Wilde’s own scandalous trial and prosecution for gross indecency and sodomy. Directed by Ken Hughes (
Cromwell,
The Internecine Project) and co-starring Yvonne Mitchell (
The Queen of Spades), James Mason (
The Man Between) and Nigel Patrick (
The Sound Barrier),
The Trials of Oscar Wilde (also known as
The Man with the Green Carnation and
The Green Carnation) is a riveting, controversial look at the most notorious court battle of the late 19th century.
