Was a real charmer Neilson. American or Brit film?

This was a British film. The kidnapping took place in Shropshire in 1975 and the drainage shaft where Whittle was held and died was in Staffordshire, the county where I live.

Re: Brit General Cinema Quiz.

Correct, The Black Panther. It told the true story of heiress Lesley Whittle, 17, kidnapped and murdered by Donald Neilson, who was known as the Black Panther. He held her in an underground drainage shaft and the police found her hanging by a wire noose after she had either fell from or had been pushed off a ledge. Neilson died while still serving his whole-life tariff in 2011.

No, the kidnapping took place in the mid 70s and the film was made in 1977. The victim was a young, British female heiress and tragically she died. Think of a very recent superhero movie that had a type of animal and a colour in its title and that is also the title of the film I am referring to.

Black panther?

Re: Brit General Cinema Quiz.

Not that one. The one I am thinking of was so incredibly controversial and was made shortly after the real-life events on which it was based happened. It shares its title with a recent superhero movie.

Re: Brit General Cinema Quiz.

I was right, then!

OK, which classic British film about clashes with authority was partly filmed in black & white due to running out of money for colour film?
