Where to Watch Kidnapped (1948) in Australia

What it's about

Plot Scotland, 1751: At a stately manor near Edinburgh, the young David Balfour (Roddy McDowall)) arrives with a sealed letter from his recently deceased father for Ebenezer (Houseley Stevenson), his uncle. It is meant to be delivered to a family lawyer to introduce David as the rightful heir to the property. After slyly trying to kill his previously unknown nephew but failing, Ebenezer conspires with a sea captain, Hoseason (Roland Winters), to take the boy hostage and sell him into slavery. A prisoner aboard ship, David soon meets Alan Breck (Dan O'Herlihy), who, in need of rescue, now finds himself in danger of Hoseason stealing his gold and perhaps murdering him as well. David's quick intervention saves his life. Washed up ashore after a storm, David is hidden by an innkeeper's daughter, Aileen (Sue Englamd), then begins a long and arduous journey home. With the help of Alan, he is able to coerce a confession about the kidnapping from his uncle that is overheard by the lawyer, who now knows David to be the proper heir. Hoseason, feeling betrayed, tries to kill Ebenezer in a sword fight, resulting in the deaths of both. (from Wikipedia)
