Long before kidnapping young women in America became the common occurrence it is now, there was the story of Peggy Ann Bradnick whose kidnapping became a big, international news story. Although it was a different time and a different country then, all hell seemed to break loose in 1966 when the nutjobs came out in full force. Peggy's kidnapping was just a few months before Richard Speck murdered 8 student nurses in Chicago, and sniper Charles Whitman went on a killing spree atop the University of Texas Tower in Austin. Except for a few minor changes, this very well-done, well-acted, and thoroughly researched TV movie captured her ordeal perfectly. Along with Megan Follows, David Morse especially gives a memorable performance and you just know that had the real kidnapper lived, he would have been a Trumper: a smelly, toothless, hillbilly nutjob who loved guns and couldn't get a woman unless he stole one. (I believe they're called incels and...what's the word? LOSERS.)
