Set in 1961 when Kempton Bunton, a 60-year-old taxi driver, stole Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London. It was the first (and remains the only) theft in the Gallery's history. Kempton sent ransom notes saying that he would return the painting on condition that the government agreed to provide television for free to the elderly. What happened next became the stuff of legend. Only 50 years later did the full story emerge a startling revelation of how a good man set out to change the world and in so doing saved his son and his marriage to Dorothy Bunton.
DVD, NTSC region 1, anamorphic widescreen (2.39:1) presentation; 5.1 Dolby Digital.

Very Enjoyable movie, and all of it actually happened! submitted by Tassos on November 14, 2022, 5:12pm I really enjoyed watching this movie.

sweet, simple story, solid performances submitted by apknapp on July 10, 2023, 11:46am Surprisingly complex characters, lovely performances, occasionally heavy but frequently funny, overall very enjoyable.
