Cillian Murphy's Pieter bonding with Scarlett Johansson’s Griet over fresh meat, in Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003). ⁣

A vegetarian at the time, Cillian spent time chopping up pigs in a Luxembourg abattoir in preparation for his role as a butcher boy because he didn’t want to appear to be a phony in the film. “We chopped shit up. It was my idea. It’s not method acting; it’s just so, when I come on screen, people don’t go, ‘Hang on a minute, that guy’s never carried a pig before.' Otherwise some butcher in the audience will stand up and rip on the whole movie.” ⁣
