PROBLEM: Fact1: Maisie fires pistol too close to head, Fact2: guardians are sending her to be educated, Fact3: Dick turns to painting to try to make living, Fact4: works start to sell, Fact5: realistic paintings of scenes from war in Sudan become popular with critics and public

SOLUTION: In 1865, youngster Dick Heldar is briefly blinded when his girlfriend Maisie accidentally fires his pistol too close to his head. She later tells him that her guardians are sending her away somewhere to be educated, but she agrees when he says she belongs to him forever and ever. Years later, Dick Ronald Colman is a British soldier in the Sudan. When the natives attack suddenly, he saves the life of his friend, war correspondent Torp Torpenhow Walter Huston, but receives a wound to the head as a result. He turns to painting to try to make a living. When his works start to sell, he returns to England. His realistic paintings of scenes from the war in the Sudan become immensely popular with the critics and the public. In London, he moves in with Torp and is reunited with a grownup Maisie Muriel Angelus, a painter like himself, though not as successful. Liking the financial rewards, Dick is persuaded to sanitize his gritty realism to make his works more attractive to the masses. Torp and fellow war correspondent The Nilghai Dudley Digges try to warn him about it, but he pays no heed; he becomes complacent and lazy. Maisie decides to move away and stop seeing him. One night, Dick returns to his lodgings to find a young, bedraggled woman Ida Lupino lying on his sofa. Torp explains that she fainted from hunger outside, so he brought her in and fed her Dicks dinner. She bitterly gives her name as Bessie Broke. Dick becomes fascinated; she is the ideal model for Melancholia, a painting that Maisie had struggled to complete. He hires her to pose for him. When his vision starts to blur, he goes to see a doctor Halliwell Hobbes, who gives him a grim prognosis: as a result of his old war injury, he will go blind, in a year if he avoids strain, not very long if he does not. Before he completely loses his sight, Dick resolves to paint his masterpiece, Melancholia. He drinks heavily, and drives Bessie to hysteria to get just the right expression. When Torp returns from his latest assignment, Dick tells him about his blindness and shows him the painting. While Dick sleeps, however, Bessie sneaks in and destroys it, unaware of his ailment. When he wakes up, he is blind. Torp sees to it he does not learn of Bessies act and sends for Maisie. When Dick shows her his masterpiece, she cannot bring herself to tell him it is ruined. She leaves. One day, while he is out on a walk, his servant Ernest Cossart recognizes Bessie. Dick invites her to his home. He shows her the balance in his bank book, proposes she take care of him, and kisses her. Realizing he will learn the truth at some point, she then confesses what she has done. Once the news sinks in, he changes his plans. Dick travels back to the Sudan, where he puts on his old uniform and hires a guide to take him to join Torp. They ride in on horseback in the midst of a battle. Sensing that the British cavalry is about to deploy, Dick gets Torp to direct him into the midst of the charge, where he is shot and killed by a native.

PROBLEM: Fact1: naive young Dorian Gray arrives in late Victorian London by train to inherit estate left to him by abusive grandfather, Fact2: charismatic Lord Henry Harry Wotton introduces Gray to hedonistic pleasures of city, Fact3: Sybil was pregnant with Gray 's child, Fact4: Jim kill Gray before being restrained and carried off by authorities, Fact5: resulting in Hallward 's brutal murder after artist reveals secret

SOLUTION: When a naive young Dorian Gray arrives in late Victorian London, by train, to inherit an estate left to him by his abusive grandfather, he is swept into a social whirlwind by the charismatic Lord Henry Harry Wotton, who introduces Gray to the hedonistic pleasures of the city. Lord Henrys friend, society artist Basil Hallward, paints a portrait of Gray to capture the full power of his youthful beauty. When the portrait is unveiled, Gray makes a flippant pledge: he would give anything to stay as he is in the picture—even his soul. Gray meets and falls in love with budding young actress, Sibyl Vane. After a few weeks, he proposes marriage to her. Lord Henry tells Gray that having children is the beginning of the end, and after the two men visit a brothel, Gray leaves Sibyl. Heartbroken, the young woman commits suicide by drowning. Gray learns of her death the following day from her brother, James Jim, who also reveals that Sybil was pregnant with Grays child. Enraged, Jim tries to kill Gray before being restrained and carried off by the authorities. Grays initial grief soon disappears as Lord Henry persuades him that all events are mere experiences and without consequence. His hedonistic lifestyle worsens, distancing him from a concerned Hallward. Gray returns home one evening to find that Hallwards portrait of him has become warped and twisted, and he soon realises that his offhand pledge has come true; while the portrait ages, its owners sins manifest as physical defects on the canvas. Before long, the curse imbued within Grays portrait begins in earnest, resulting in Hallwards brutal murder after the artist reveals his secret. Gray dismembers and dumps Hallwards body in the River Thames, but the remains are soon recovered and eventually buried. Gray decides to leave London to travel the world and he invites Lord Henry to join him as his companion, but he declines, citing his wifes pregnancy. After an eighteen year absence, Gray stuns everyone at the welcoming party with his unchanged youthful appearance. He also meets and soon becomes close to Lord Henrys daughter, Emily, a member of the UK suffragette movement, much to her fathers disapproval. Although Gray appears genuinely interested in changing his ways as he spends time with Emily, matters are complicated when he is confronted by Jim, who continues to seek vengeance for his sisters death. Despite Grays attempts to mislead Jim by pointing out his apparent age, Jim nevertheless deduces his true identity, but is killed by an oncoming train while pursuing Gray in the London Underground. Meanwhile, as Gray makes arrangements to leave London with Emily, Lord Henrys suspicions are confirmed when a study of old photographs triggers a memory where he jokingly suggested that Gray exchange his soul in return for eternal youth and beauty. Breaking into Grays home, Lord Henry discovers the concealed portrait, but is intercepted by Gray before he can uncover it. As Gray attempts to convince him of the authenticity of his feelings for Emily, Lord Henry suddenly discovers the bloodstained scarf of Basil in a box. This prompts Gray to declare that he is the personification of the life Lord Henry fantasised but dared not pursue. Full of anger and grief, Gray attempts to strangle him but is distracted by Emilys call long enough for Lord Henry to knock him aside and expose the portrait. Disgusted and horrified at the twisted sight on the canvas, Lord Henry throws a lit lamp at the portrait, causing it to catch fire, and then locks the gate of the attic to ensure that Gray and the painting are destroyed. Emily pleads with Gray for the key, but Gray instead confesses his love for her and turns his back as Lord Henry drags his daughter out of the burning mansion. Resolving to end his suffering, Gray impales the painting with a poker, causing his body to age rapidly, before the attic is consumed by an explosion. A few months later, following a futile attempt to reconcile with Emily, Lord Henry heads to his attic where he keeps the nowyouthful portrait of Gray, grimly noting that nobody will look at it now. As Lord Henry leaves, the portraits eyes glow, implying that Grays soul is still alive even after his death.
