Extraordinary story based on real events - Ryan Reynolds gives a solid performance and Helen Mirren - delicious, as always. A part of the Nazi's seizures made vividly egregious. The first few minutes are so gorgeous , they make the entire film worth it!

Helen Mirren pulls this off spectacularily. Ryan Reynolds quietly and with bold authority takes the bite of WWII's less famous side. Stolen property. More should happen along these lines. Thank GOD, most of my forbears for getting out of Europe, and Russia early, in the 1900's.

This was based on a true story about a holocaust survivor (Mirren) who hires a young lawyer to help her recover the painting, "Woman In Gold." The painting was of Mirren's aunt and valued at millions of dollars. It had been stolen by the Germans from Mirren's home during WWII. I found the story captivating and have already watched it twice. It did not receive a lot of publicity as it was not done by one of the mainstream Hollywood studios.

Very good story about a lady wanting the portrait of her Aunt Adele. It was stolen by the Nazis as was lots of priceless artworks. Austria had it in their national art gallery and felt like it was their right to have it because it was a national symbol for the people of Austria never mind they stole it 40 years earlier... from the owners...along with being tortured!!!
