A classic must be the Mr Bean movie where Mr Bean is mistaken as a British art expert and brought to a big art museum in the US which has just purchased the painting "Whistler's Mother". Absolutely hilarious and cringe-inducing if you are an art curator or conservator.
Here is a link to a page with a plot synopsis written by Mr Bean himself.

Subject: Re: novels and films set in museums
I'm teaching an "Introduction to Museum Studies" course next year. I plan to examine popular images of museums by having students read novels and/or watch films that are about, or set in, museums. Any suggested titles?
Thanks!
