I liked this far more than I should have, I expect.
If you remember the piece, it was a famous study by Rembrandt, of light and shadow. Called "The Night Watch," it was actually entitled "The Shooting Company of Frans Banning Cocq," after the guy who commissioned it (Cocq? One of the Koch Brothers, I bet!)

If they tried this in the US, they wouldn't get 15 seconds in before someone called 911 and all their "guns" would be confiscated.
I would have preferred if they used King Crimson's "The Night Watch" as music. It wouldn't have had the same instant recognizability, but Ode to Joy has been used enough.
