Event Details

(USA, 2015, 109 min., color, DCP, PG-13) Starring Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds Academy Award winner Helen Mirren stars in the incredible story of Maria Altmann, a Jewish refugee who is forced to flee Vienna during World War II. Decades later, determined to salvage some dignity from her past, Maria has taken on a mission to reclaim a painting the Nazis stole from her family: the famous Lady In Gold, a portrait of her beloved Aunt Adele. Partnering with an inexperienced but determined young lawyer (Ryan Reynolds), Maria embarks on an epic journey for justice 60 years in the making. –The Weinstein Company "It's an immensely satisfying David-and-Goliath story, showing that sometimes the good guys win—even if it takes 70 years and the gumption of a Helen Mirren to do it.” –Jim Lane, Sacramento News & Review, 4/9/2015
