'THE HAPPY PRINCE' PHOTOS

Meanwhile, new photos have arrived for another 19th century movie: Rupert Everett's film on Oscar Wilde THE HAPPY PRINCE which boasts the most stellar of casts including Colin Firth, Colin Morgan, Emily Watson, Miranda Richardson and Tom Wilkinson!
HAPPY PRINCE IS THE UNTOLD
story of the last days in the tragic times of Oscar Wilde. This great mean of letters, once one of the most famous authors in England, is now a superstar on the skids. We are taken through his last nocturnal ramble through Paris.
Totally inebriated
Oscar falls off a table at a Varieté. In bed, dying, the past floods
back. Friends appear. The room expands and shrinks inside his addled
head, transporting him to other times and places. We immerge into the
great
love stories of Oscar Wilde, notably his relationship to Lord
Alfred Douglas, which observed under the microscope of death is revealed
for what it really is - a passionate affair
based on snobbery. And yet,
through the smoky fumes of
absinthe and cigars, appears a twinkle of
love: Robbie. Sternly devoted to Oscar like no other friend ever has
before, true and faithful. Oscar's visions intensify. Past scenes of
passion, injured pride, ignorance and humiliation are reviewed in his
minds eye.
