American Kidnapping
Hollywood is haunted by the story of the kidnapping of the granddaughter of the newspaper magnate William Randolph Hirst. Patricia Hirst fell into the hands of the Symbionist Liberation Army (CAO) in February 1974. Within a couple of months, she took a new name and began robbing banks along with the kidnappers. When Patty and other members of the terrorist group were brought before the law, the girl played the Stockholm Syndrome card and escaped with 22 months in prison.Fox 2000 tried to tell this story a few years ago, but in the end they had to curtail work on the film under pressure from Patricia and the #MeToo movement. Another version of the scandalous plot is being prepared by the Clear Horizon film company. To avoid problems with the Hearst family, the producers and screenwriters will focus on one of the founders of the Symbionist Liberation Army - Patricia Soltysik. The picture will tell how a girl from a good family dropped out of college, became carried away by radical views and created her own terrorist organization. The drama about the establishment of the CAO and the abduction of Hirst will be directed by the head of Clear Horizon David Brown. Source: Deadline The Topic of Article: American Kidnapping. |
