The Adventurer

The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box was released ten years ago, in 2014. It was an action/fantasy that was supposed to be the first in a film franchise. But it bombed.

It did have a nice little scene where the mother of the hero, played by Keeley Hawes, has been taken captive by the villain, played by Jurassic Park's Sam Neil. No shots of her feet, and I don't think she was barefoot, here, anyway. But the gag she wears is impressive.

The scene shows Hawes seated bound and gagged at a dining table aboard a train, with Neil doing the standard villain gloating at her (never mind offering her something to eat). It's short, but sweet, and you can see it right here.
