Wilde (1997)

Corrected entry: Oscar Wilde is seen giving testimony during his trial. In Britain, defendants were not allowed to give evidence at their own criminal trials until 1898, and Wilde's trial was around 1895/6.

David Mercier

Correction: There is a substantial amount of historical evidence that Wilde did indeed give testimony at his trials.
