We show you some scenes that you will probably have seen and have enchanted you for their beauty, without knowing that they were actually the living representation of a picture.
1.Django UnchainedvsThe Blue Boy
Did you believe that the blue dress was a simple Creation of Tarantino? Instead, it is inspired by the 1770 painting by Thomas Gainsborough.
2.MelancholiavsOphelia
Don't you find a brilliant scene too? Lars von Trier is an unparalleled genius and this reference to Ophelia, the painting by John Everett Millais, is simply perfect. It is not a simple copy, the scene looks different, but the reference to the picture is very clear.

We are pretty sure that Paul Thomas Anderson enjoyed recreatingLast dinner With pizza.
4.Forrest GumpvsThe world of Christina
This scene inForrest Gump It looks like a painting by Andrew Wyeth, but from a different perspective. Doesn't it seem to you too?
5.The girl with the Pearl EarringvsThe girl with the Pearl Earring
It's much more than obvious. The goal was to recreateThe girl with the Pearl Earring, the famous painting by Johannes Vermeer, and seems that Peter Webber has chosen the perfect actress for the purpose. Scarlett Johansson is identical to the painting girl.
6.DunkirkvsHiker on the sea of fog
Even if the mood is completely different, the image seems incredibly similar. The fog and smoke give the same effect and colors are practically the same.
7.Shutter IslandvsThe kiss
Looking at this sceneShutter Island, Have you ever thought that it resembled a little at the painting by Gustav Klimt? We all did it, but was he wanted? We should ask Martin Scorsese and knowing him, he will surely be like this.
8.Two gamevsThe son of man
That dress looks very familiar, right? And in the film it is clearly referred to the picture, so we know for sure that the scene was deliberately created in this way. Also because nobody could ever dress so by chance.
9.FridavsFrida and Diego Rivera
This famous painting by Frida was really mentioned in a 2002 film scene, but the incredible thing is how good they were to reproduce every detail. Someone else, like me, is convinced that this film should have received more awards than he received?
