The story of the first modern man

Based on the true story regarding the man who contributed much to English literature, this film looked at the sexual awakening of the man.  It was said that his work began to improve after he discovered his other side.  Wilde eventually fell for a young man, Bosie (Jude Law), who proved to be too difficult for Wilde to handle. Wonderful watch.
