Triumph as the Painting by Anthony Quinn Returns

I went to see a one-off screening of the Anthony Quinn movie Zorba the Greek last Sunday at the Hawthorne cinemas and when I was booking my tickets for the movie on the cinema's homepage I saw the above news story about Triumph, the painting by Anthony Quinn being stolen on 14th November 2015.

I was glad to see that the painting was back in its rightful place last Sunday when I attended the screening of Zorba the Greek.
It really lived up to its name to see the painting triumphantly hanging back on the wall.

 I have to admit though that I enjoyed seeing the painting much more than I did seeing the movie.

The movie came out the year I was born (1964) and that was the first time I have seen it, and hopefully the last time, too.

Unlike the returned painting, that was two hours of my life that I will never get back again.
