Yesterday, someone stole Edward Munch's famous painting The Scream!!! They also stole his painting Madonna.
Doesn't sound like security was all that tight. Movies have conditioned me to elaborate, never-been-cracked safeguards that require thieves to navigate three-dimensional grids of laserbeams, but in this case two men in ski masks simply waltzed in and waved some pistols at a few unarmed guards. How mundane.
