The Picture of Dorian Gray
Movie • 1945 • Fantasy
ReportSynopsis
Posing for a portrait, Dorian Gray talks with Lord Henry Wotton, who says that men should pursue their sensual longings, but laments that only the young get to do so. Taken with the idea, Dorian imagines a scenario in which the painting will age as he stays youthful. His wish comes true, and his boyish looks aid him as he indulges his every whim. But when a stunning revelation forces him to see what he's become, Dorian faces some very dangerous questions.

A butterfly is killed in the first scene. It's pretty obviously a fake though. Later on quails are served for dinner with their feathers, wings, heads, etc still intact

Worthy of note: A character begins a relationship with a woman he knew as a child, though eighteen years pass between when he meets her as a child and when they begin the relationship

No one in Dorian Gray is explicitly stated to be LGBT, but several characters are heavily coded as LGBT. Two of these characters die.
