It was the greatest art heist in history.

In 1943, the Allies advance against the Axis powers in Italy. Lieutenant Frank Stokes warns President Roosevelt that victory means nothing if the great artistic treasures of Western civilization are lost. His proposal leads to him being tasked with forming an army unit made up of museum directors, curators, art historians and an architect. This is how the «The Monuments Men» group is born, tasked with guiding the Allied units in the search for stolen works to return them to their rightful owners. Directed by George Clooney, the film stars Matt Damon, Bill Murray, John Goodman, Jean Dujardin and Cate Blanchett, among others.

Trivia about The Monuments Men

Daniel Craig was set to play James Granger, but he dropped out due to scheduling conflicts with other projects, and the role ended up going to Matt Damon.
The production received 8.5 million euros from Germany's Federal Film Fund (DFFF), as part of a co-production between Columbia Pictures and Studio Babelsberg.
The release originally planned for December 2013 was pushed back to February 2014 because balancing the humor with the seriousness of the subject lengthened post-production.
According to Clooney, 80 percent of the story is completely true and almost all of the scenes actually happened, although the names of all the characters were changed.
