The Kidnappers (1953) – DVD | Duncan Macrae | Vincent Winter | British Drama Classic
Two small boys. One forbidden wish. And a secret that could change everything. The Kidnappers (also known as The Little Kidnappers) is a deeply moving and beautifully crafted 1953 British drama set in Nova Scotia at the turn of the century. Two young orphaned brothers, living with their stern grandfather who forbids them from having a dog, secretly adopt an abandoned baby instead — with tender and ultimately heartwarming consequences.
Winner of a special BAFTA Award and featuring extraordinary performances from child actors Vincent Winter and Jon Whiteley — both of whom received Honorary Academy Awards for their performances — this is a rare and genuinely touching classic.
