For anyone who actually visits Boston, this museum is amazing and they 100% still have the empty frames hanging where the art was stolen. It's very cool.
It's also like an "In Memoriam" to honor the lost art I guess. It's very obvious that due to the high profile nature of the works that whoever stole them kept the paintings for themselves. There's no way they can sell them in the open art market because they will get instantly recognized as the lost masterpieces. So they gotta be sitting in someone's basement or vault or hidden in an attic or behind a wall somewhere. Whether or not they surface one day remains to be seen. And that to me, would be the fascinating sequel and conclusion to this mystery. 😉
I agree! - Because they are not allowed to change anything. It was in her will to leave everything as is ... it never crossed her mind that this would happen. LOL It really is a great museum though
My mother went a few years ago and raved on about it! Shame that the paintings were stolen but when you have that much currency worth of art, others will want a piece of it.
I did a 25+ page research paper on this in college! I'm so excited! It remains as far as my knowledge the biggest unsolved heist ever. Not just art heist but any heist, of all time.
@@Ninja-gt3zi they also put a lot of effort into preserving important artefacts and rescuing them from unstable countries. Such a small brain argument to give everything back to the countries they came from, that’s all well and good but it will be flogged and lost to private collectors forever. The British museum isn’t some bank like a vault of gold it works with countries to protect their artefacts and study them for the sake of anthropology and ancient history. it doesn’t keep them for a laugh or out of spite.
@@teeambird2079 holy crap ! So why not Brits return those artifacts to their real owner as now many countries like India Egypt is a stable country & can invest in research
Thanks for your comments Expert Harry is currently handling my crypto and it's making me huge profits turning my 2 BTC into 4BTC in 9days and making me $400,000 weekly by putting $50,000 indeed I'm amazed..
The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum is unbelievable. Before this happened, I remember going there to write a paper for an art class. I spent a considerable amount of time there. I don't remember, but I'm sure I a saw these paintings when I was there, because I covered every inch of that place. It's pretty incredible.
This is so exciting!! Went to this museum and it was chilling to see the empty frames. Hopefully this doc can help get the word out to a new generation
Imagine someone going into their parents/grandparents attic, seeing some rolled up paintings and casually tossing them out, completely oblivious to what they really are.
That is my deepest fear that this will be done to one of these pictures. Thank God Netflix is stirring the pot again to keep them in the cultural memory!
@@jessicamoore1314 These were almost certainly stolen as collateral for other things, not for their artistic value. Check out the Swedish National Museum theft from the early 2000s. That's why there's such a high risk of accidental destruction or mishandling damage. This isn't a movie where some corrupt billionaire keeps them in a secret gallery in his mansion. Some mouth breather has them rolled up in a basement lockup somewhere waiting for the day he gets arrested.
Watching this documentary, my heart broke for the stolen artwork so many people will never get to see. Seeing how one of the potential owners treated it so recklessly, just letting it waste away, rolling up centuries old artwork so it wound up cracking. Art should be enjoyed by everyone, not just the guy with half a million to throw around. And it was so infuriating that the FBI never really cared to give a good investigation & just assigned a random lackey. Also Bobby Guarente is the literal twin of the second guy in the drawings. Definitely believe he did it.
I remember watching this report on Buzzfeed Unsolved and learned that the security guy who worked that night was too chill I’m pretty sure he was high as a kite that night lol
The most perplexing thing about this heist, is how a museum with artwork valued at $500+ million dollars, would put the responsibility of protecting it into a Grateful Dead stoner who liked to do acid. What's the worse that can happen?
About time Netflix comes out with a good mystery docuseries! I am sick and tired of Netflix raising the prices every year and having absolutely nothing interesting to watch!
Omg yesssss the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum!!! It’s one of my favorite museums and they still have the empty frames of the paintings on the wall, in the hope they will be returned. The most famous art heist ever. Also one of the lawyers in this trailer was also in the Operation Varsity Blues documentary 😂 He represented the Stanford sailing coach. Yes, I have eagle eyes and pretty sure the only one who caught this.
@@FreshSpecimens Yeah i know. and if someone knows the real price of that paintings they will be not interested in reward, they will sell that in higher price, reality, that's my point. lol
Mrs Gardiner occupied 150/152 Beacon Street. When she moved to the pink palazzo the number 152 Beacon was retired, leaving 150 Beacon the largest space. It was bought by Emerson College. I lived there, with pull-chain toilets and intricate murals of Leda & the swan over our bathtubs. Mrs Gardiner was a rabid Red Sox fan, and when you go to the museum on game days wearing anything Red Sox, admission is free. Plus, if anybody is named Isabella: free admission
I came here to see some comments on whether it is worth watching or not, but the comments section really sucks...leave your comments on the movie people!!!
Before watching this, I thought this was an interactive show where they give you clues and if you're the first to figure it out, they'll give you a reward😅
A burglary happened after the museum director was fired after only six months Logical question: Has the dismissed former museum director been investigated? Is it not logical that he carried out an act of revenge? We leave this question to FBI !
I must have missed something. Anne Hawley was appointed director in 1990, and 6 months after that, the burglary happened. But she was never fired. She stepped down in 2015. Was there a director shortly before her that was fired after only 6 months?
I don’t understand why nobody has come forward now, because the statute of limitations is long gone so there’s no way the thieves could be charged for it
"These paintings are worth half a billion dollars" but... "if you find them, we'll give you 10 million" uh... I think maybe selling them is smarter...?
It would be extremely difficult to sell them because they are so recognizable at this point. You'd have to have some very deep black market connections. Even then how could you trust anyone not to expose you for the recognition that would come with the find?
Worth nothing on the street basically - only worth money after they are back with their rightful owner, unless you're trying to get out of jail, that is.....
Entrusting the safekeeping of such valuable artistic values to a frivolous person who is not an expert in security, is in my opinion, the greatest failure of this museum, the paintings have deservedly disappeared, I am surprised that in addition to this kind of security, they did not disappear before... How did you take care of the paintings so you it happened... Now someone else will take better care of them than the museum... Sad story..
For anyone who actually visits Boston, this museum is amazing and they 100% still have the empty frames hanging where the art was stolen. It's very cool.
Yes! I was going to write that same thing. It's sad and yet hopeful, because it does feel like they're waiting for their art to return.

I hope I can visit there one day
I think Netflix is better at making documentaries than movies or dramas.
They make it very compelling and make the subject matter from swear words to murder such an iintriguing watch
much better and interesting
100%. I do watch more documentaries rather than sitcoms or movies in Netflix.
I think Netflix doesn’t care what you think.
Hahaha

Nice which degree?
I want answers dammit
What grade did you get for the paper??

That duct tape job though....were the robbers afraid his hair was gonna escape? 🤣🤣🤣

This is so exciting!! Went to this museum and it was chilling to see the empty frames. Hopefully this doc can help get the word out to a new generation
I love the soundtracks of this documentary. It's so dramatic and intense and yet elegant at the same time
I get chills every time I walk into The Dutch Room & you see the empty frames! It’s like God this really happened, and on Paddy’s Night too! Genius!
Imagine one watching this doc with that art in front of them as they lay in the arms of their wrinkly boyfriend 😆😝
K that is adorable
Lmao 😂
Those works belong to humanity. Only selfish wastes of breath would want them for themselves.
@@WouldntULikeToKnow. Bruh calm tf down
it looks incredible. I screamed when I saw the trailer because this case is so intriguing to me
Really? You screamed? This must be very important to you in your life huh 😒

If anyone's interested there's a great podcast called Last Seen all about this.

I’m suddenly into finding lost paintings 🧐
That Rembrant one with the boat is stunning.... so sad its missing

That pierced my heart soooo deeply
That won’t happen - I’m sure they are loved by a black market buyer who bought them ...

I really love netflix documentaries and unsolved mysteries..please do more! 👏🏻
Better than HBO
They should make an actual series from this story😳😳😳😳❤❤
I think the old lawyer got them as a payment, he looks sneaky 😅
Netflix’s documentaries are something they should be very proud of

me jumping on the notification thinking it’s money heist s5- CLOWN
$10m reward but the price of all that paintings is $500m 😂
It’s 10 million for information leading to find them. It doesn’t mean that the person that gets the reward has the paintings.
So what is your point? The museum is not looking to “purchase” them. They are looking to recover them.
@@FreshSpecimens Yeah i know. and if someone knows the real price of that paintings they will be not interested in reward, they will sell that in higher price, reality, that's my point. lol
@@adorhambre597 They can't sell these paintings now. they are waaay too high profile
Please we all know the cops never pay anyone. Never
Just watched all 4 episodes. Conclusion: Brilliant, Brilliant, BRILLIANT
Even if you're not an art aficionado, this theft should sicken even the most jaded, cynical person.
Indeed
Why? It was stolen from a rich lady with art insurance lol
These crime docu series are off the hook and super interesting
Expectation: Money Heist
Reality : Art Heist
The art is worth over 500,000,000. How is that not a money heist?
My favorite documentary of ALL TIME, BY FAR.

The security guard definitely knows who took it 💯
Definitely
No he doesn't
Everyone: Money Heist
Me: hey i saw this case on buzzfeed unsolved nice :D
I hope there’s fake mustaches in the recreations.
This is probably why most museums should have replicas displayed instead. And most likely already do.
I came here to see some comments on whether it is worth watching or not, but the comments section really sucks...leave your comments on the movie people!!!
It's worth watching, but don't expect closure
@@tylerm2676 thank you very much!
What if the robbers are sitting here watching this documentary and just praying that no one will actually be able to find them by watching this thing?
Anne Hawley is laughing over her tea........missing paintings, biggest art heist shortly after she started = more attention....hmmm
Terry Silver had the Rembrandt seascape!!!
It's in safe hands, now that Mike Barnes has it 🤣🤣
YUP... Just watched the History channel segment with PIERCE BROSNAN on the Re-creation of this Unloved Heist from 1990 😁👍🏻
The Gardner Museum is so beautiful, it's a shame this is how it's known.
Before watching this, I thought this was an interactive show where they give you clues and if you're the first to figure it out, they'll give you a reward😅
Imagine the thief laughing at this 😂
Two eps was all I needed on this.
The biggest robbery do by netflix who stole my lot of time by showing these types of fabulous documentry.
Netflix is the king of Docu-Drama.
" Heyyy how you doin' "
I just hope, someday I will be able to see those stolen paintings on those walls. In my home city, I have great hope.
I’ll be watching it today, so excited 😍
Please release money hiest part 5 please who wants next part of money hiest 👍👍
This art works heist documentary looks really interesting!!
Lol I've already watched this on buzzfeed unsolved. People need to start pulling more heists I'm getting bored😔
Hey, Netflix! Yes, I'm talking to you! When is stranger things season 4?
They need put Neal Caffrey and Agent Bruke on this heist 🤷♂️
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THINKING THIS
I was thinking d same!!
Let me guess by the end of this documentary, they don't find the thieves?
I mean it’s still remains the most unsolved heist of all time...so no i don’t think so
Its a documentary, Not an arrest.
Netflix making Documentaries 👏🏼👏🏼
The fact : It doesn't contain single advt.
Imagine if this is the thing that brings in the lead that results in the paintings being found
That would be great! They belong in the museum for everyone to see and enjoy.
An amazing, amazing, amazing show -- cannot say enough good things about it!
Netflix needs to make documentary on how British robbed Indian art works and placed it in its museum.
A burglary happened after the museum director was fired after only six months
Logical question: Has the dismissed former museum director been investigated?
Is it not logical that he carried out an act of revenge?
We leave this question to FBI !
I must have missed something. Anne Hawley was appointed director in 1990, and 6 months after that, the burglary happened. But she was never fired. She stepped down in 2015. Was there a director shortly before her that was fired after only 6 months?
I still can’t believe I’ve stood in that museum
You said they're worth half a billion dollars and that's how much I intend you to give me
What’s the background music at 1:03 ?
She said “Grandpa’s dead, look what we got!” 😂
i thought it was about money heist
I love true crime and netflix always delivers but this....this was unique 👌
Believe it or not I saw the Vermeer painting at a yard sale many years ago.
They sell prints.
La Casa de Papel (Money Heist)
Lupin
Now this....
Netflix wants us to do... something.
So creative on Title. Its right on the face. 😄
Who took the duct tape that bound the guards? That's your whole case
I'm wondering how could they fit a 63" x 50" painting in a car, if the support was too stiff to be rolled or folded. I don't get it 🤯
Oh my god… i just need to find a small part of the painting 🤪
1:37 who is this lawyer? I have seen him somewhere else as well but I just can’t remember? Can someone help me remember?
I don’t understand why nobody has come forward now, because the statute of limitations is long gone so there’s no way the thieves could be charged for it
We need our Boston queen Katya to watch this!
this looks interesting i’ll be tuning in
Such a big mystery, someone goes in the basement every day to have a see.
Did you guys check the British Museum ???
"These paintings are worth half a billion dollars" but... "if you find them, we'll give you 10 million" uh... I think maybe selling them is smarter...?

In Boston and was planning on visiting the museum when I came across this. Dang
Oh my God yes, My favourite art heist.
And they say, very dramatically, "Gentleman, this is a robbery"
I think that was stolen from La Casa De Papel
lol they are waiting for grandpa to die, and hopefully one of the grandkids will come up with the painting
10 mil is not enough to get that art back. Wow
I thought of Joey when he said *how you doin'*
Thanks for your comments am referring you to my trade. expect
