It is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes

"The Girl with the Pearl Earring" is over.

Probably everyone's evaluation of it should be the same: a good oil painting movie, every second is an oil painting.

There is no love between men and women, and there are no very conflicting pictures. The two were turbulent, each was jealous, and each released it. eventually separated forever.

So even if they didn't say anything to each other, everyone understood the throbbing. Restrained to use ear piercings as a metaphor for affection. Vermeer's wife saw the painting close to collapse. Because Vermeer's eyes and mouths of girls convey love.

Interestingly, it seems that all good romance films are telling us one thing, let everything stop at the most beautiful moment to create a classic. Otherwise, chickens and dogs are jumping, haha.

The story is nothing to discuss, the plot is simple. What's great is the composition, what's beautiful is the color, and what's wonderful is the director's way of telling the dark tide between men and women.

This type of film is really a bit difficult to understand if you don't understand the history and history of European literature and art before watching it.

After reading it, I have two thoughts. The first one is that I really want to go to the museum in The Hague and see this painting with my own eyes. The second is to buy a lot of pearl jewelry~
