    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.

      I think the answer to Zaba's question is IF.

            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.

                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.
