Interview, Dec, 2003 by Juan Morales
(Lions Gate)
Directed by Peter Webber
Echoing her performance as a young woman who stirs an older man in Lost in Translation, Scarlett Johansson is Griet, a shy maid who inspires 17th-century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer's (Colin Firth) greatest portrait. With exquisite cinematography, the subtle tension between artist and muse is brought to life in this complex, deceptively languid film.
