The epidemic situation was tidying up my study at home, and I pulled out a batch of movies that I thought were not bad to review. Today I will talk about this "Woman in Gold".
At the beginning of the last century, Austria’s most important artist Gustav Klimt was invited to create this painting for the 25-year-old Adele in 1907. · Portrait of Mrs. Bloch-Bauer I. This work was completed four years later, on the eve of one stop, and Gustav's "golden age" is in line with the aesthetics of this golden age, and it is also a period of rapid growth of Impressionism. In the following decades, this stunning masterpiece remained in Adele’s bedroom until it was snatched by Nazi soldiers when Germany annexed Austria during World War II. Later, in order to ignore the connection between the painting and the Jews, it was renamed "Woman in Gold". It is indeed wonderful to witness Gustav's "Kiss" in Vienna for two years!
This film is adapted from a real event. It tells the story of the famous painting after being looted and returned to the descendants of Adele after 50 years of "exile". It also includes the story of Maria Altman and her husband's escape experience. Plain narrative (no war scenes) was behind the accusations against the Nazis' actions. The film said that compensation means returning to the previous state, but how to compensate for the psychological trauma? I think this is also the focus of the film. If the old thing can heal a trace of pain, I should fight for it.
I am very happy with the production team of this film. First of all, it is directed by Simon Curtis. I believe many people may not know it, but if you like British dramas, you should have seen "Cranford", and this is what Simon Curtis directed . This film tells us almost in the most plain language about a history that has a stormy sea. This is also a feature of what I like about British filming. The story is attributed to people rather than scenes.
Actress Helen Mirren believes that everyone is already familiar with Best Actress Oscar/Queen of Cannes/Queen of Venice/Best Actress of the Golden Globes, etc. She has been included in her bag, and she has performed several impressive movies. Although I can't say that this time Maria Altman is particularly brilliant, but the control is still in place.
The male protagonist Ryan Reynolds is a male god-level character. For me, his most amazing thing is to get the goddesses in his bag. In 2004, he was engaged to the legendary female singer Alanis Morissette . After breaking up , he married the most beautiful Scarlett Johansson of the century . After the divorce, he married. the Blake Lively this really Niua! But his acting skills are mediocre, but his silly look fits the character's a little shy look.
As for the supporting characters, I still like it a lot. For example, Max Irons, as the son of the British male god Jeremy Irons , inherited the super beauty and added the gentle appearance of his mother, which is so good! Charles Dance / Elizabeth McGovern are also very fond of...
