	'Guerrilla' goes in search of Patty Hearst \| The San Diego Union-Tribune
		Patricia Hearst, of the rich and famous Hearsts, was a college girl enjoying what she later called a "perfect" life when she was abducted in 1974 by renegade radicals.
		Three decades later, Patty Hearst is an urban folk memory as rebel/victim "Tania." She lives in Hearstian comfort, appears charmingly on talk shows and is an amusing element in the goofball comedies of John Waters.
		Hearst's ordeal was part of the media-driven, paranoid linkage between the Nixon and Reagan eras (her prison term for robbery was commuted by President Carter; she was pardoned by President Clinton).

	All about Patty Hearst, Kathleen Soliah and the SLA by Katherine Ramsland
		Patty is the granddaughter of the legendary newspaper publisher, William Randolph Hearst.
		Patty's doting father, Randolph Hearst, had initially responded to the SLA's demands (made by tape and given to the media) by distributing millions of dollars worth of food to the poor, which badly backfired.
		The Hearsts believed that she was being forced to say these things, but then they received a photo of her with a carbine rifle in her arms, standing next to the seven-headed cobra, which was the SLA's symbol.

		At her robbery trial, Hearst's lawyers insisted that their client was herself be held at gunpoint at the time and forced to act against her wishes.

	Guerilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst movie Review at The Z Review UK movie review
		Hearst (granddaughter of newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst) was kidnapped in 1974 by ‘The Symbionese Liberation Army,’ a group of radical leftists.
		Messages by Patty were released to the media; she said she was fine and unharmed, and that her parents should just follow the demands and she will not be hurt.
		When we hear those messages from Hearst, we sense that maybe she is able to convince even herself that what she is saying is right, because she would die if she did not join the group.

	AlterNet: Movie Mix: Patty Hearst's 'Guerrilla' Legacy
		This is connected to the melodrama of Patty Hearst, in the sense that her own transformation -- her immersion in the group and succumbing to Stockholm Syndrome -- was a public saga.
		Stone's film includes no interviews with Patty Hearst, a decision he says in the commentary, is premised on his focus on her effects ("It's her enigma that makes her interesting").
		Such scandalous sidebar stories were everywhere surrounding the SLA main stage, as reporters were fed by the Hearsts ("We got barbeque sauce, wine, liquor") and took to joking around during their down hours (revealed in newly discovered footage here that looks like a college party more than any sort of reporters' assembly).

		Hearst's secure existence is shattered when she is seized by a tiny terrorist group calling itself the Symbionese Liberation Army.
		Unlike the much-later theatrical feature Patty Hearst, the made-for-TV Ordeal is told from the point of view of the FBI agent (Dennis Weaver) assigned to the case; in fact, more time is spent on the private life of the agent (who is on the eve of his retirement) than on Ms.

		Hearst was once Symbionese, she understands the Symbionese mindset perfectly and therefore her autobiography has incredible power behind it.

	Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst
		As the film points out, though the Hearsts were wealthy (Patty's grandfather was William Randolph Hearst, made infamous by Orson Wells in the thinly veiled character of Citizen Kane), coming up with $400 million in food was a ludicrous demand.
		Initial public support waned dramatically after Patty went over to the dark side with her captors, and the holdup of the San Francisco Sunset neighborhood branch of the Hibernia Bank, in which an armed Patty was captured on camera actively participating.
		The striking color photo (most news was still in fl and white) of Patty with her gun and the SLA seven-headed snake symbol became ubiquitous in the media circus that continued for many months.

		A story that has enthralled and fascinated people for over thirty years now, the saga of Patty Hearst's kidnapping in 1974 by the Symbionese Liberation Army and her subsequent brainwashing, was brought to the screen by director Paul Schrader.
		When Patty was finally apprehended 18 months later she was found guilty of her crimes and sentenced to a correctional facility.
		Patty's captivity is rendered in a dark, surreal, almost theatrical way; we are locked in a room with her for much of the first half an hour, experiencing her captors only as fl silhouettes against white light.

		In 1974, young Patty Hearst became a media icon after she was kidnapped from her apartment by a group calling itself the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA).
		The SLA's demands on Hearst's family were unique; hoping to spark a class war in America, they instructed the Hearst's to make a multimillion dollar donation of food to the poor.
		Hearst has subsequently enjoyed a post-kidnapping career as an actress, and has appeared in a number of films by the infamous "Pope of Trash" John Waters, whose 2000 film CECIL B. DEMENTED owes a sizeable debt to Hearst's kidnapping tale.

		For a while it was thought that the SLA might be some group of rightwing racist fanatics, but their communiqués began sounding more leftwing with talk of police as pigs, America as a fascist corporate state, and prisons as concentration camps.
		After listening agonizingly to a string of communiqués from Patty and the SLA played over radio stations, the Hearst family finally got a glimpse of their daughter, but without consolation, for there she stood, captured by the surveillance cameras in a bank, holding an automatic weapon, and participating in an armed robbery.
		If the Hearst daughter could be turned into an armed revolutionary, many parents must have thought, it could happen to their children.

	Patty Hearst (1988) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		But Patty Hearst, member of one of the most famous and in the public opinion most wealthy families of the USA is brutally thrown into darkness.
		This retelling of actual facts, which is done exclusively and in straight chronological order from Patty's point of view, might or might not be a „doctored" account of events, it certainly is convincing and allows the viewers to commiserate with the main protagonist.
		She concludes at the end that society probably would have preferred her dead, and after seeing the movie one must say she has a point there (for this aspect it might be interesting to check out Robert Aldrich's The Grissom Gang).
