Mixed Motives?
Just watched the movie which I enjoyed but I am confused about the motive for the kidnapping. If the true motive was revenge for the death of the kidnappers' daughter, what was the point of the alleged first 4 kidnappings. I didn't have this problem when I read the book but I am not sure why. I guess I was convinced that this was actually the first kidnapping and the others were made up by the kidnappers to make them seem more threatening. The beginning of the movie made it obvious that they had done it before.
