The Scarlet Letter (1995)

The Scarlet Letter is the 1995 period drama adapted from Nathaniel Hawthorne's classic novel, a tale of forbidden passion and Puritan punishment in colonial New England. Demi Moore stars as Hester Prynne, and the 1 scene collected here makes clear why this adaptation earned a reputation for running far steamier than the source material. She bares all on screen with the confidence that defined her mid-90s peak, a brief stop but a worthwhile one for any fan.
