Not worth it

Rating: 1/10 (21 November 2015)

the facts, as presented in the movie.
the old Jewish woman claimed she wasn't doing it for the money, but for justice.
she said the museum claimed that her aunt donated the painting to them in her will, but that she had never confirmed that, because she had never seen the will herself, nor did her Jewish attorney.
then, they found the will and confirmed it was genuine. she & her attorney both found out that the museum was telling the truth. it was indeed her aunt's wishes that the painting be donated to the museum--a place in the public view, in Austria (her aunt's birthplace), and as a gift to the Austrian people and the rest of the world, if they visited the museum.
the painting was considered by the Austrian people to be one of their most beloved artworks.
through a technicality initiated by her Jewish attorney, the old Jewish woman got the painting back, took it out of Austria, sold it to a private investor for $130 million and kept the money. and when she died, she kept the money in her Jewish family by willing all of it back to her immediate relatives.
she overrode her aunt's final wishes, removed the painting from the museum and kept the money for herself & her family members.
but, again, as the old Jewish woman said in the movie--it's not about the money.
sure it isn't.
