This movie opened last night here in Birmingham, Al. and I had the pleasure of seeing it. I'm certainly not a movie critic, but I was blown away by this movie. It was like watch a painting in motion throughout the entire picture. Artist in general would be very intrigued by this film as it get's into some of Vermeer's techniques and also his palette and oil color making. The story line is also well written. The young lady who plays "Griet" (the model for the painting and Vermeer's servant) is an identical twin to the painting.
This is a must see for artist/historians.
