Talk:Girl with a Pearl Earring (film)

Comment
Isn't there a book with the same title and subject (that is, the girl who is featured in the painting)? I've never read the book, but if someone has, is the movie based off the book?

Yes. The movie is rather similar to the book. 203.218.86.146 21:04, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Girlwithapearlearringmovie.jpg
Image:Girlwithapearlearringmovie.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Differences between book and novel
Is this section really necessary? If someone feels that it is, can they please rewrite it as prose per WP:MOS. As a list, it is in danger of being removed. The Interior (Talk) 05:01, 28 November 2010 (UTC)


 * On the other hand, extrapolating that to the film, was it really necessary, as, on the basis of lack of plot, its sole purpose seems to have been that of introducing Ms. Johansson to an adult audience!;)1812ahill (talk) 00:36, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Plot
The final scene is not of Van Ruijven looking at the painting, that is the penultimate scene. The order is the other way around, Griet holding the blue scarf and the pair of earrings is last. As the credits roll we see Vermeer's actual painting... at least that's how it went on the film I just watched on SBS World Movies (Melbourne, Australia) Wokepedian (talk) 04:29, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
