Kidnapped is a 1960 American adventure drama film directed by Robert Stevenson. It is based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic 1886 novel Kidnapped. It stars Peter Finch and James MacArthur, and was Disney's second production based on a novel by Stevenson, the first being Treasure Island. It also marked Peter O'Toole's feature-film debut.

Production

Robert Stevenson was making Disney's Darby O'Gill and the Little People (1959) in England when Walt Disney visited the set and suggested they adapt Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Kidnapped for their next project. Stevenson re-read the novel, was enthused, and wrote a treatment on a working holiday in Scotland. When another project he was working on fell through, Stevenson wrote a screenplay for Kidnapped.

Earlier film adaptations of the novel had been produced by Edison Studios in 1917 and by 20th Century Fox in 1938 and in 1948. 20th Century Fox had registered rights to the title but waived them and the film was announced in December 1958.

Stevenson says Walt Disney was of great use when working on the script. Many people advised Stevenson to put a woman in the story, but Disney resisted, saying it was not true to the novel. By the time filming started, Stevenson estimated he had read the novel "eight to ten times".

The lead role was given to James MacArthur, who had just made The Light in the Forest (1958) and Third Man on the Mountain (1959) for Disney and been signed to a two-picture deal with the studio (the second film would be Swiss Family Robinson).

The other lead role was given to Peter Finch who had just appeared in The Nun's Story (1959).
