: Better late than never on a reply, I guess!

: I saw "Stolen Women Captured Hearts" two times on TV over the years. I don't think it's out on video, though. But, I'm sure that it repeats occasionally--probably on Lifetime TV (I don't have cable, so I don't know for sure). I'm sure if you keep your eyes open, it'll come on TV again, and you can tape it yourself.

: BTW---I was so intrigued by the story when I first saw the movie, since it was inspired by actual events. So I did some searching on Anna Brewster Morgan. Her true story did not end up a love story. She was newly married in Kansas when she was kidnapped by Indians. She was later found, and then returned to her home, but she was pregnant, a result of her captivity. She did not have a happy marriage, and later had a mental breakdown. Very sad, her life.

: On the subject of Indian captives--"Follow the River" is a great read. I've never seen the movie, though.

Nancy,

I've not read "Follow the River" but I have seen the movie. I liked the story. I have heard from others that the movie was not near as good as the book (usually isn't, with the exception of LOTM, of course!).
