Amber - That's right, that CP scene just gives the film that extra little dash of spice. :) And the scene where he pierces her ear was one of those electrifying moments where I appreciated watching it alone. (And then raced over to my best friend's, and watched it with her again, this time getting a kick out of her reactions. *g*) Redhead - You're a fount of useful artistic knowledge, my friend. (What promise am I carrying out, though? Remind me? ;) ) MichaelDavid – Yep, it was gritty alright, worlds apart from the underlying tenderness in the relationship in “The Girl with a Pearl Earring” (which is one of my favourites, too; I love Scarlett!)

I agree about the Girl with the Earing, though. It is kinky in a refreshingly implicit way, to the point that it's almost uncomfortable to watch with other people. And it had its own CP scene too.

Thank you for the very incisive review. I watched Girl In Pearl Earring again the other night, on the telly, previously on the big screen. I was just struck by how beautiffully Scarlett played the part. Not a foot or a gesture or a curtsy was wrong. And not surprisingly Lost In Translation is my next favourite. Anyway a Harlot's progress sounds wonderfully gritty and one hopes to see it one day. We out in the colonies have not had the pleasure of this movie. Thank you for the very incisive review.
