One of the best erotic non-sexual scenes...


for me, the scene of the earring is one of the best erotic non-sexual scenes in movie history, along with the book scene between anthony hopkins and emma thompson in "remains of the day" (only that colin is far more hot )

These scenes are masterful at capturing the essense of the Artist/Muse relationship. Some of these intimate moments between Vermeer and Griet are filled with so much sexual tension, its almost obscene in a very subtle way.

Brilliant Period Piece and overall film.

Of course we all know what a pearl necklace is slang for, don't we?

Not to speak of the scene where he stands in the door and watches her bare her hair; as intimate in that time and place as being nude.

In fact, in the book it is after this incident, not the ear-piercing, that she goes to offer herself to Pieter.
