ANY DAY NOW, a new indie film inspired by an unsolved $500 millon art heist, opens Friday at the Monica Film Center

August 20, 2025 by Jordan Deglise Moore

On March 18, 1990, thirteen works of art were stolen from Boston’s Gardner Museum. Thirty-five years later, the case remains unsolved. No arrests have been made, and not a single piece of art has been recovered. The $500 million theft, regarded as the largest property crime in history, continues to capture the world’s attention.
Any Day Now is a new indie film inspired by the unsolved theft of these 13 masterpieces. To market the project, the team launched a bold pop-up gallery stunt in New York, inspired by the film’s true-crime art heist plot. The opening night party blurred fiction and reality for both invited guests and passerby, culminating in an FBI “raid” where agents dramatically “seized” a Rembrandt.
Now, the show that caused a ruckus in New York has come to L.A. Visit the viral 13 Masterpieces at the lobby of the Laemmle Monica Film Center and get tickets to see Any Day Now in the theater opening 8/22. For a limited time only.
