Until this time, we discussed lots of subject about the book. If some of those subject are true, I can say that this book is a reflection of Oscar Wilde, is an inner conflicts of Oscar Wilde. In the book, Dorian Gray's soul and body are not complete. When his body was imprisoned, his soul is free as depending on Lord Henry. In first times, Dorian knew these words' meanings and importance, soul and body till he met Lord Henry. In the film, my subject is reflected in a scene. In this scene, Lord Henry took Dorian Gray to a club which is in a poor ward. When Dorian Gray saw many prostitutes, he asks that isn't there any effect on soul. Lord Henry felt lonely and homesick because according to him, when you take pleasure, there mustn't be anything like being ashamed. Why I didn't give an example from the book? I gave this example because visual things are more memorable :):):) What is thing which affected Dorian Gray? Of course, secular pleasure, beauty, youth and genius. I believe that maybe Oscar Wilde did a bad thing in that period he lived but this book came to today and it created us to have a chance to discuss. I have never thought before these words so deeply. Beauty, Genius and Youth... We are always talking about them. Our expectations depend on them. Everything doesn't have equal conditions and because of these, we are in this state.
I agree with you at only one point. I think that visual things can be much more easily remembered and can easily have a place in our minds. But at the other points, I could not agree with you. I don't think that just because the book stay still and we have chance to discuss, it is also because the book has really deep meanings and opinions in itself.
ReplyDeleteYou could also give an example from the book, you could quote from the Lord Henry's words. Because we all know that Lord Henry is a person who really cares about Beauty and he has really meaningful sentences. He loves influencing people with his words, he loves entertaining people with his opinions.
