被納粹擄走的畫作如今掛著美國博物館裡

Simon Curtis』 legal drama, "Woman in Gold," is based on the true story of an American Jewish refugee from Austria who fights to reclaim a famous Gustav Klimt painting stolen from her family by the Nazis during World War II. It's a haunting film that speaks to the hearts of millions who have sought to reclaim their past, stripped from them 70 years ago. VOA's Penelope Poulou reports.

導演賽門·柯蒂斯的法律電影《金衣女人》是根據真實故事改編的。影片講述了從奧地利逃亡的美籍猶太人為收回二戰期間納粹從她家擄走的明華艾蒂兒肖像一號而鬥爭的故事。這部讓人難以忘懷的影片說出了千萬想尋回70多年前被剝奪的一切的人的心聲。

Fifteen years ago, Maria Altman hired a young lawyer, a family friend, to help her sue the Austrian government to recover the painting, which was on display at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, home to the world's largest Klimt collection.
15年以前，Maria Altman雇用了一位年輕律師幫助她向奧地利政府訴訟討回名畫。這幅畫在維也納的美景宮博物館展出，這裡擁有世界上最豐富的克林姆化作藏品。

The film portrays the Austrian curator as an arrogant, unyielding man who refuses to return the painting to Altman because he believes the painting belongs to Austria.
這部電影逼真的描繪了一位傲慢偏執的奧利拉博物館館長。他拒絕歸還化作，以為他堅信這幅畫屬於奧地利。

A local Austrian journalist tells Altman her chances of getting the painting back were infinitesimal because "Woman in Gold" was the Mona 麗莎 of Vienna. But for Altman, it was a family portrait of her Aunt Adele.
一位奧地利記者告訴Altman她那會化作的機會非常小，因為這位「金色衣服的女士「是維也納的蒙娜麗莎。但是對Altman來說，這幅畫是她的阿姨Adele的家庭畫像。
Filmmaker Curtis intersperses flashbacks of the dramatic last days before Altman’s escape from Vienna during the Nazi rule in 1938, with scenes of the contemporary courtroom drama.
影片製作人Curtis將納粹統治的1938年Altman逃離維也納前夜和當代法庭審判的場景交織呈現。

Curtis』 film also addresses the much larger issue of victims』 need for justice rendered, even 70 years after the Holocaust.
在這部影片裡柯蒂斯同樣強調了正義的審判對受害者的重要作用，即使是在大屠殺已經過去70年後的現在。

「One of the important messages in this film is that we must remember what happened,」 he said. 「The 21st century is a very complicated and unstable place right now, and it is important to remember some of the lessons and some of the terrible mistakes that were made in the 20th century.」
影片傳達的最重要的資訊之一就是我們必需要記得曾經發生過什麼。他說：「21世紀到了現在已經到了一個紛雜的、不穩定的階段，記得過去的教訓、記起20世紀所犯下的可怕的錯誤是非常重要的。」

Curtis says he took exceptional care to accurately depict scenes from the persecution of the Jews in Austria on the eve of WWII.
柯蒂斯說他特別留心的去準確展現了二戰前夕奧地利對猶太人的迫害。

「We did our best to be as authentic as possible when we were recreating the hideous events of 1938 Vienna. We actually recreated documentary photographs and video of the Germans coming to town, so we did our best to give it as an authentic feel as possible.」
當我們在重現1938年在維也納發生的可怕的事件時，我們盡力做到客觀。我們的確重現了老照片和影像資料里德國人入侵城市的景像，我們儘量給出了客觀的感受。

Ryan Reynolds plays Randol Schoenberg, an untried attorney in international law at the time, who in 1998 took the case against Austria to the U.S. Supreme Court, and won. Today, Schoenberg is president of the Holocaust Museum in Los Angeles. He continues his efforts to reclaim art stolen from Jewish families.
Ryan Reynolds 飾演 Schoenberg，一個當時在國際法辯護中並沒有經驗的年輕律師。他於1998年接下了此案向美國最高法庭訴訟奧地利政府，並取得了勝利。 Schoenberg如今是洛杉磯Holocaust博物館的主席。他一直為幫助猶太家庭討回被剝奪的藝術品而努力。

「Immediately after the war, people didn』t concentrate on material things,」 he explained. 「It was rebuilding lives, finding loved ones, figuring out what had happened to them, so I think it did take time for these other issues to subside and for people to focus on the few things that they still could get back and art works are, seven decades later, one of the few things that we can still do something about.」
「戰爭剛剛結束時，人民不關心物質，」他說：「生活需要重建，尋找愛人，探尋過去究竟發生了什麼。所以我想還需要時間去平息一些事情，讓人們去關注那些他們還沒有討回的少數東西，而藝術品就屬於70多年後我們仍然可以為之努力的少數東西。」
