Storyline
Maria Altman sought to regain a world famous painting of her aunt plundered by the Nazis during World War II. She did so not just to regain what was rightfully hers, but also to obtain some measure of justice for the death, destruction, and massive art theft perpetrated by the Nazis.Movie Reviews
While this is a deeply
moving story, this is the first film about the Holocaust I've ever heard
of that is not intensely violent or overwhelmingly gut-wrenching. You
could take the whole family to see Woman in Gold without being concerned
in the slightest about traumatizing even a child. The story is told in
such a straightforward way you get to feel like you are a friend of the
Altman and Bloch-Bauer family! It's that intimate! Wow! That's what I
call good filmmaking!
The next time you visit New York City I highly recommend visiting The Neue Gallery located on Museum Mile. Seeing the Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I by Gustav Klimt in real life is quite an experience! There's good reason why the painting is called the "Mona Lisa of Austria." This is also a story about being a good lawyer.
If you want to be a lawyer someday, this story will give you an idea what a determined and intelligent lawyer can accomplish!
