Story Consists of Both Characters and Plot

edit

This article is exceptionally flat and could use character backgrounds to make it more interesting, in addition to the existing plot summary.Shannon bohle (talk) 01:47, 29 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Vincent Van Gogh???

edit

"Noon: Rest From Work (After Millet)" by Vincent van Gogh - The painting Crown admires and calls "his haystacks," the original is owned by Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France

I have the movie on DVD and there was not a haystack. At what point is the picture? I have not seen it! --88.69.225.63 (talk) 19:45, 11 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

At 3:33-34 there's a direct shot of the painting, and it's in the background at various times for the next 30 seconds or so. --Ktoktok (talk) 06:41, 22 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Who really owns the painting?

edit

The San_Giorgio_Maggiore_at_dusk says that the painting is owned by National Museum and Art Gallery in Cardiff, Wales. While this article says it's owned by Bridgestone Museum of Art in Tokyo, Japan.

So which one is right? Wikihonduras (talk) 09:59, 12 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Both own it, there is more than one version of the painting. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:50, 12 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Dummy?

No mention of the rights stuff-up that meant Russo's likeness was replaced by a manequin? Misterandersen (talk) 14:04, 13 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Which painting was stolen at the end of the film?

edit

This article previously identified, under plot, the final painting stolen in the film as Banks of the Seine at Argenteuil by Claude Monet, and linked to that page.

But the painting in the film doesn't match the photo of that painting at all.

The painting in the film shows a woman and a boat.

I've removed that reference from the article.

What painting was stolen?

It appears to match this painting with the same name by Edouard Manet (not Monet): http://www.artandarchitecture.org.uk/images/gallery/8a192e9f.html. That's the painting identified here: http://paintingsinmovies.com/m/view/id/71 Pop quizzed (talk) 04:07, 22 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
