Woman in Gold

My husband and I really enjoyed the movie, Woman in Gold. Helen Mirren gave a stunning performance. Ryan Reynolds and Tatiana Maslany gave great supportive roles. The background of Vienna, Austria was beautiful. The flashbacks were done expertly. a real tearjerker. A must see for lovers of art, history and great acting!

We always enjoy the Tribute screenings. The Sponsors are welcoming and the cinema staff very courteous. Woman in Gold offered a sensitive view of the Holocaust. excellent film.

I would say entertaining and a bit humorous even though the subject was not very? Smile

This film was amazing! Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds give incredible and heart-wrenching performances. The film transitions seemlessly between post-Nazi Vienna and Vienna in the late 90s. It's historically captivating and by the end there won't be a dry eye in the theatre. It's truly a film of perseverance and triumph!

I am very tempted to give this movie 5 out of 5, but I am a tough audience who believes it is hard to accomplish perfection. Dealing with the emotional subject of retrieving family possessions and reliving unimaginable historical events, the cast and crew create an excellent atmosphere, resulting in both laughter and tears. This movie will definitely send you on an emotional roller coaster. I do not want to provide any spoilers as this is a must see film, so all I will say is that given a glimpse into the life of someone who is fighting for the right to preserve her family history while battling the struggle to face her past was very eye opening for me. You can definitely witness various

The always amazing and dignified Helen Mirren will have you in turns laughing and crying. Would not perhaps have cast Ryan Reynolds as the lawyer that takes on her case, but they did have a good onscreen chemistry. I believe there was not a dry eye in the house at the film's resolution. Would highly recommend this film.

Great film! You just want Maria to win and get back what is rightfully hers! Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds pull it off beautifully.

Thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I cried. have never been to Vienna. It is very beautiful and would hope that one day I could go and visit the Holocaust Memorial. I have been to the one in Israel. I also did not know that the painting is now on display in New York. I highly recommend it to everyone, whether Jewish or not.

This movie kept us interested from beginning to end. I found myself being overwehelmed and a bit teary-eyed when I left the theatre. Both Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds were great! I would totally recommend it to anyone.

great acting by both Ryan Reynolds and Helen Mirren; I really enjoyed this movie!

I love Helen Miren, she's such a great actress! I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, it kept us captivated the entire time. The movie told the story with historical accuracy and social realities, well done!

Loved it, what a great movie!!

This movie poignant at times, yet inspirational and uplifting, was a remarkably good story. The final outcome bestowed a modicum of justice on many who had been deprived of so much by the Nazi thugs. Helen Mirren was, as ever, brilliant in her portrayal of Maria Altmann and Ryan Reynolds' performance, playing her justice-seeking, tenacious young lawyer, was note-worthy. The cinematography was especially wonderful!

Both my friend and I thought the movie was superb and worthy of five stars. As a European with Jewish family members I was touched by the horrors of what they went through. Being an art aficionado, I enjoyed the theme of the painting and the story behind it and was disturbed by the underhanded way the committee operated. The sub story of how Maria goes through the different emotions and the changing relationship between her and her lawyer was realistic and interesting. Helen Mirren's acting was wonderful as usual and I was pleasantly surprised by Ryan Reynolds. It is a movie that left me thinking and that I would highly recommend.

Really enjoyed this film-- the acting was excellent and the story was compelling. The weaving of the past and present stories was very well done.

This movie was excellent from beginning to end. It is also interesting to note the Woman in Gold painting can be seen in New York.

Great show- great story, no sex or violence, just emotion, and expression and REAL feeling expressed throughout.. I LOVE Helen Mirren-- I had no doubt at all that she was actually Maria in real life-- not acting, and Ryan was just simply sweet and believable. And the fact that it was based on a true story, makes it one of my favourites this year so far!!!

This was an excellent movie. I was impressed with the acting and thought Helen Mirren did a great job of portraying Maria Altmann.

The subject matter was heart wrenching but Maria's quips kept the show from being gloomy.

It was a wonderful movie and everyone clapped at the end..I would give it a 4. Good for families too and the acting was very good. Thanks for the passes.

Well acted, well written and excellent production of a historically significant event in our time that drew us in as the story progressed. Definitely not the kind of film some people would want to see, but a totally engrossing film that touched all the emotions. We thoroughly enjoyed the movie and welcome any future opportunities. 5 out of 5.

This movie was an outstanding story (based on a true story) of the on-going fight for justice for those Jewish people who suffered the atrocities of the Nazis (WWII) and of the pursuit of one woman to regain the portrait of her beloved aunt which was seized by the Nazis along with other art from her family home and others. There are many thousands of descendants of WWII victims who still search for the return of the family art, which is rightfully theirs but claimed by Governments, museums and others. The movie was educational for some of our youth and intriguing with some rare humor made richer by Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this viewing.

One wonders how many countries are in possession of these artifacts purchased through art shows or passed down to future generations over the years who knowingly do not seek the rightful ow

I really like this show. It had a great story line and being based on a true story made it that much more remarkable. It touched a lot of my senses with respect to what they went through.

The movie was very engaging: the lone woman justifiably fighting the "we're bigger than you" Austrian government. My thoughts and emotions went back and forth many times between happiness and anger. Great movie!

Well done. My friend and I totally enjoyed the movie. A good lesson in history, no violence no swearing, A real treat. My friend even came home to Google more information on the topic. She was inspired to learn more. People need to know. Thank you.

Excellent movie..........great story and the acting was fantastic. I'm sure this film will get the Academy's attention. At the theater where I watched it in Calgary the audience clapped when it was over.......you don't see that too often. I've written on facebook recommending it as a definite 'must see' movie!

Loved the movie and the fact that it was a true story!!!

"Woman In Gold" tells the relatively unknown story of people and families who had their property and valuables seized during WWII and their ongoing struggle to reclaim what was taken. Helen Mirren as Maria Altman is amazing but I think the biggest revelation is Tatiana Maslany as young Maria. Tatiana conveys an amazing range of emotion throughout the movie. My only criticism is the movie never really makes the viewer feel the legal barriers being erected by the the antagonists. Yes, they are self righteous in character, but the obstacles fall like dominoes and for all the angst, the characters never seem too challenged.

I enjoyed this movie even though it was not an "enjoyable" subject matter. Mirren shows her excellent adaptability and characterization. The supporting cast was ok, not bad but certainly not outstanding. The cinematography was excellent. Even though you may know the ending of the movie (as I did and likely most of the people do) it was a good telling of a story.

I really enjoyed this show. What a story! Definitely worth going to see.

Heartwarming true life story with a stellar cast.

I absolutely loved this movie, it was a great true story and the way the story went, going back in time, made it so much more interesting. I have already told a number of my co-workers to go see it.

Woman in Gold was delightful. A brilliant mix of witty humour and deep memories. Ryan Reynolds and Helen Mirren have terrific chemistry and blend tragic events with enough light-hearted comments to move the scenes along.

Very good movie - love Helen Mirren of course. Didn't know of the story and her fight to get her rightful art back. Had a great time! Thank you! Cathy G

A compelling film on how art can inspire the worst and best in us. An educational journey into one of the many atrocities brought upon by the Nazi regime in mid 20th century Europe and the struggles of those still trying to rectify those wrongs today. Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds have create chemistry on screen and a head nod to Tatiana Maslany for a subtle and deep performance.

I am a fan of Helen Mirren and she never disappoints. This movie is a success because of her fine acting. The other actors are good but Helen is impressive and convincing. I enjoyed the story and the beautiful architecture of Vienna, Austria.

This was one of the top 2 movies I have seen this year! Helen and Ryan outdo themselves with the brilliant performance each gave. I would recommend this movie to all! Thanks again for the tickets!!

A beautiful film. The period sets were stunning and evoked such a realistic portrait of Vienna at the time. Helen Mirren's acting was impeccable and the repartee between her and Ryan Reynolds worked exceedingly well; there was a spark of humour. I thoroughly enjoyed the film and will most likely watch it again and thinking a trip to New York is in order to visit the Neue Galerie to see the Klimt.

Amazing story of injustice and reparation. Helen Mirren is fabulous, as always. I highly recommend it, especially if you enjoyed Monuments Men.
