Woman In Gold, 2015
Critics have called it dull and, in places, historically inaccurate. Any scene involving Helen Mirren would be impossible to be dull; she's an incredibly gifted actress. There was certainly nothing inaccurate about the Nazi plundering of art, including the great Klimt painting from which the movie derives its name. Nothing inaccurate, either, about the Austrian's denial of the facts in this lengthy case, until justice finally prevailed.
Yet another depiction of the ruthlessness of the Nazis, and how their legacy lives on in the disgusting greed, denial of facts, and moral vacuum of Trump, his enablers, and his "good people".
