Product Description
WOMAN IN GOLD is the remarkable true story of one woman's journey to reclaim her heritage and seek justice for what happened to her family. Sixty years after she fled Vienna during World War II, an elderly Jewish woman, Maria Altmann, starts her journey to retrieve family possessions seized by the Nazis, among them Klimt's famous painting THE LADY IN GOLD. Together with her inexperienced but plucky young lawyer Randy Schoenberg, she embarks upon a major battle which takes them all the way to the heart of the Austrian establishment and the U.S. Supreme Court, and forces her to confront difficult truths about the past along the way.

After I read some critics panning Woman in Gold when it first came out, I decided not to see it. $8.00 per ticket (in Hawaii)--two tickets, for my wife and me--$16.00, plus the (for me) impossible-to-resist hot dog and popcorn at the the theater--$25.00. Sheesh, I could buy a couple of books, maybe even Audible.com books for that. And instead of a couple of hours in a theater, have 14 hours of "reading" pleasure and more if I reread or relisten.
So I didn't go.
But for $5.00 on Amazon Prime and both of us sitting in our lounge chairs, eating dinner. Why not?
And it was WONDERFUL. Of course, Helen Mirren was wonderful. But I have long admired Ryan Reynolds. And I should have known better than to listen to the critics. He is subdued, nerday, sincere, with an undertone of bitter sharpness--far from the wise-cracking roommate in his old TV series, far from the tortured heroes he has played in other movies. He has got to be one of the most underestimated actors around. And, yes, the story is corny and historically inaccurate. But IT'S A MOVIE. IT'S A MOVIE. IT'S A MOVIE. And it was moving, and HURRAY for the good guys beating unbeatable odds. And yes, it made me realize how complacent we are about injustices, and we SHOULD fight against apathy and injustice. It manipulated my feelings. IT'S A MOVIE.
Why don't some critics get it? Some--very few--movies are--but most movies are not--all consuming, full-of-wisdom, marvels of dramatic/comedic art. But that doesn't mean they are bad movies. They are VERY good, and they have good effects. They're not great. So what? Give them credit for what they do.
Woman in Gold made me want to look up the history of Klimt and related artwork and read about what happened with art thefts during World War II.
THEN I go to history books and biographies and news articles and commentaries.
And I wish I had gone to see Woman in Gold when it was on a big screen in a theater.
Ryan Reynolds, an actor entering his prime in 2015 (8 years after his breakout year 2007), plays Randy Schoenberg, a descendant of famous Austrians, but like Maria, has a much quieter life in America where they fled from the Nazis. Randy is a budding lawyer, and who was engaged by Maria only for the reason that his mother is a close friend of Maria - 'I needed someone I could trust'.
Randy is inexperienced but resourceful. He also has a trustworthy mien and a pleasant, sincere demeanour. All that comes to his aid in the final showdown in the Austrian arbitration court where he was pitted against the best lawyers the state could find. His closing speech is reason alone for watching this movie; but it is the performance of the cast, especially Mirren, Randy and Allan Corduner, that makes the movie all the more mesmerising. It is based on a true, and moving, story.
