'Kidnapped' is a 1917 American silent adventure film directed by Alan Crosland for Edison Studios. It was based on the 1886 novel 'Kidnapped' by Robert Louis Stevenson. The film only included selected parts of the story, and reinforced the then-developing romanticisation of the Scottish Highlands.
Previously thought lost, a copy of the film is preserved in the Library of Congress collection.
