      excellent work

      I watched it on an Air France plane when I returned from Europe, and half of the time I saw it, I thought the movie must have a good rating. At the end of it, I suddenly felt that it should be a movie with a real story changed. I got off the plane and checked it out. The protagonist's acting skills and the recollection of the plot are perfectly interspersed. There is neither sloppyness nor excessive effort to deliberately render superfluous elements. The focus of the whole play revolves...

      "Woman in Gold" - It's a rescue!

      It was a night I wanted to relax, so I picked this movie to watch. Before watching it, I held back from watching the plot and comments. After watching it all the way, I realized that this movie is also about World War II.

      There are too many movies about World War II, and every time you watch too much, you will have a lot of courage to open one. "Hintler's List", "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas", "The Bridge on the...

      The subject matter is heavy and profound, and the characters are full of emotion and delicate and precise

      Overall, "The Woman in Gold" is an excellent film. The background of the painting and the memories of the heroine Maria lead to the cruel and bloody World War II, which is thought-provoking; at the same time, the film is well-structured, and the current line The interweaving with the memory line is just right, it will not make the viewer feel confused, the rhythm is also properly grasped, not procrastinating, and the seemingly boring lawsuit is also full and vivid because of the rich emotional...

      The rule of law guarantees justice

      Only at the end did I know that it was based on a true story, and that there was indeed a painting and its story. At the end of the film, Helen Miller planned to keep the painting in Austria. In reality, the owner of the painting sold it to a New York museum for $135 million. Flashbacks to the 1938 scene through Helen Miller's recollections, but the depiction of the Nazi persecution of Judaism is mediocre. The only thing that is amazing is that in a society ruled by law, individuals fight...

      America is justice

      The story of the return of artworks, the Nazis stole the famous paintings, and after the war, the artworks were occupied by the Austrian government. The main emotion of the male protagonist is to think of the tragic experiences of his grandfather and grandmother's generation, and the emotion of the female protagonist is to recall those difficult years, and recall the persecution of his parents by the Nazis after he fled. Now the Nazis are dead, but Justice and justice have been slow to come....

      Just finished watching, breathtaking. It's rare to be touched by Ryan Reynolds' acting skills, and Helen is the real queen in my heart. The return of cultural relics and artworks is a complex worldwide issue. Although the film has a clear theme of the American Empire, I was deeply...

      However, Helen Mirren's temperament is too strong, and RR can also perform well. Of course, there is not much sense of presence around the queen~ The film is not handled well in many places, and many sensational places are not done, such as the first exhibition exhibition The "Woman in Gold" and several courtroom scenes made the audience unable to get excited about the lawsuit victory with the characters. Maria's scene with her parents before she escapes is quite...

    Evaluation action

    "Woman in Gold", a film about art, is actually about the issue of heritage obtained through collusion. It is also a true story. It does not need to polish the facts too much, but many movies like to whitewash the facts. Curtis and screenwriter Alex Kaye Campbell abandoned the exaggerated and false plot out of respect for the audience. When the protagonist went to The Republic of Austria to appeal, the outline of the story gradually...

    • Maria Altmann: I have decided to allow the paintings to remain on display... if you agree to admit they were obtained illegally.
