Review – Stolen

One of the most interesting cases – or at the very least one of the most expensive – in the history of art theft is the loss of several paintings from the Gardner museum. This documentary about the crime is approximately one third about the paintings and the theft, one third about museum founder Isabella Gardner and one third about the search for the paintings and the thieves. Though the whole thing is informative, the best parts are about insurance investigator Harold Smith. Mildly amusing
