| ARTICLES RELATED TO The Picture of Dorian Gray | | | |  The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - CriminalsHistoric periods in the city's underworld have been portrayed in a small number of films.

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - Ealing Comedies The Ealing comedies of the 1940s and 1950s made particularly good use of locations in the city. Hue and Cry (1947) and Passport to Pimlico (1949) were memorably set in the ruins and bombsites of post-war London. In the 1950s The Lavender Hill Mob made extensive use of London locations, as did the dramas The Blue Lamp and Pool of London, while The Ladykillers used King's Cross Station and its surroundi ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - 20th Century Edwardian London has been depicted in several films, notably the Ealing comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets in 1949, the Merchant Ivory E.M. Forster adaptation Howards End (1992) and the biopic Young Winston (1972).
Wartime London has featured in many films, with The Man Who Loved Redheads and Zeppelin (1971) among those set during the First World War. The 1943 film The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp covered 40 years in the city, including the Edwardian era, the First World War and the Second Wor ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - Victorian London One of the most popular images of the city is the Victorian era of Charles Dickens, Jack the Ripper and Sherlock Holmes. There have been almost 200 films based on the novels of Charles Dickens alone, beginning with the silent short film Death of Nancy Sykes in 1897. The most memorable of these are probably the musical Oliver! and the two David Lean films of Oliver Twist (1948) and Great Expectations (1946). Other film adaptations include David Copperfield in 1935 and 1969, Nicholas Nickleby in 1947 a ...

| | | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - Thrillers Alfred Hitchcock probably started the fashion for using London landmarks for spy films, starting with Blackmail in 1929, which was set entirely in the city and finished on the dome of the British Museum. Many of his other thrillers followed a similar pattern, including The Man Who Knew Too Much (both the 1934 and 1956 versions), The 39 Steps (1935), Sabotage (1937), Foreign Correspondent (1940), Stage Fright (1950) and Frenzy (1972). London has since featured in many other thrillers, including ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - Science fiction Nigel Kneale's Quatermass films and television series helped to popularise London as the setting for science fiction stories. The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) ends with Professor Quatermass cornering an alien monster in Westminster Abbey, while Quatermass and the Pit (1967) begins with an alien space craft being discovered during the construction of a new London Underground station. The John Wyndham novel The Day of the Triffids was made into a film in 1962 which also features scenes in London, while the much-derided 1985 film Lifeforce ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - London in film - London Underground London's subway system the Underground or 'Tube', has featured in several films. The plot of the 1998 film Sliding Doors hinges on whether Gwynneth Paltrow's character catches a particular Tube train or not. Bulldog Jack (1934), Manhunt (1941) and The Good Die Young (1954) all include chase sequences across undergound tracks. A number of horror films have also used the subterranean network of tunnels as an atmospheric location, most notably the John Landis hit An American Werewolf in London (1981), which co ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - Arthur Machen - Machen’s philosophy and religion From the beginning of his literary career Machen espoused a mystical belief that the humdrum ordinary world hid a more mysterious and strange world beyond. His gothic and decadent works of the eighteen-nineties concluded that the lifting of this veil could lead to madness, sex, or death, and usually a combination of all three. Machen’s later works became somewhat less obviously full of gothic trappings, but for him investigations into mysteries invariably resulted in life changing transformation and sacrifice. Machen loved the medieval world view because he fel ...

Symbolism arts - Symbolism in the visual arts.
Symbolism in literature is distinct from Symbolism in art although the two overlapped on a number of points. There were several, rather dissimilar, groups of Symbolist painters and visual artists, among whom Gustave Moreau, Odilon Redon, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, Henri Fantin-Latour, Edvard Munch, Félicien Rops, and Jan Toorop were numbered. Symbolism in painting had an even larger geographical reach than Symbolism in poetry, reaching several Russian artists, as well as figures such as Elihu Vedder in the United States. Auguste Rodin ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - Fahrenheit 451 - Film and radio versions The book was made into a film in 1966 by François Truffaut, with Oskar Werner as Montag and Julie Christie in the dual roles of Linda (Mildred) Montag and Clarisse. There were some differences; for example, Clarisse survives throughout the film and accompanies Montag when he leaves the city, and the character of Faber appears only briefly as an old man asleep on a park bench in one scene. Bradbury has said that Truffaut "captured the soul and essence of the book," although he disliked the elimination of Faber.
The film was shot at Pinewood studios in England, with the monorail ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - Fahrenheit 451 - Influence on popular culture The title of Bradbury's book has become a well-known byword amongst those who oppose censorship, in much the way George Orwell's 1984 has (although not to the same extent). As such, it has been alluded to in dozens of later contexts, amongst them the ACLU's 1997 whitepaper Fahrenheit 451.2: Is Cyberspace Burning? and Michael Moore's 2004 film Fahrenheit 9/11 (Bradbury objected to its allusion of his work [1]).
The movie Equilibrium, starring Christian Bale and Sean Bean, draws heavily from Fahrenheit 451, as ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - Faust - Historical origins The Faust tale is a variation of the story about a negotiated pact between man and the devil, involving human hubris and diabolic cunning, which can be considered as a meme; the oldest extant version is the tale of Theophilus of Adana.
The origin of the protagonist's name and persona remains unclear. It is widely assumed to be based on the figure of the German magician and alchemist Dr. Johann Georg Faust (approximately 1480-1540), a dubious magician and alchemist probably from Knittlingen, Württemberg, who obtained a degree in divin ...

| | | | | The Picture of Dorian Gray: Encyclopedia II - Gothic novel - The first gothic novels The term "gothic" came to be applied to the literary genre precisely because the genre dealt with such emotional extremes and dark themes, and because it found its most natural settings in the buildings of this style -- castles, mansions, and monasteries, often remote, crumbling, and ruined. It was a fascination with this architecture and its related art, poetry (see Graveyard Poets), and even landscape gardening that inspired the first wave of gothic novelists. For example, Horace Walpole, whose The Castle of Otranto is often regarde ...
