The Hunting Party (1971)
Oliver Reed (oddly cast, but not bad) plays an American outlaw who kidnaps Melissa Ruger (Candice Bergen), a young woman married to bigwig Brandt Ruger (Gene Hackman). As the story plays out, she actually becomes more attached to Frank (Reed), especially as her relationship with Brandt is not a loving one. Brandt is an extremely determined man, so when he gets wind of Melissas' kidnapping he swings into action, using a revolutionary high powered rifle and his hunting buddies as the rest of his posse. We'll see that for all of his flaws Frank has a sensitive, caring side and is really a more appealing character than Brandt, who doesn't so much care for his wife as get angry that his property was taken from him and will get "spoiled".
