Another superb documentary film from BBC4's Neverland series which brilliantly examines the revolutionary fervour against Nixon et al in 70s America and the taking of Patty Hearst. Fascinating stuff.

AKA "Guerrilla: the taking of Patty Hearst" Very good documentary about one of the most fascinating events in American history. Unfortunately it doesn't feature contributions from either Patty Hearst, or members of the Symbionese Liberation Army directly involved in the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. It does have lots of actual footage of the spectacular events of the time. I watched this shortly after reading Trance by Christopher Sorrentino, which is a novel based on these events - also very good.
