Question: Who was the victim of the crime that gave rise to the events of the film Dance with a Stranger ?  
Context: Loxodonta exoptata is an extinct species of elephant in the genus "Loxodonta", from Africa.  A 2009 study suggested that "Loxodonta exoptata" gave rise to "L. atlantica", which gave rise to "L. africana".  The molars of "L. exoptata" are distinguished from later loxodonts by the lower plate number and their specialized enamel loops.  Fossil remains of "L. exoptata" have been found at Pliocene sites in eastern Africa including Laetoli and Koobi Fora. Ruth Ellis (9 October 1926 – 13 July 1955) was the last woman to be executed in the United Kingdom, after being convicted of the murder of her lover, David Blakely. The progymnosperms are an extinct group of woody, spore-bearing plants that is presumed to have evolved from the trimerophytes, and eventually gave rise to the gymnosperms.  They have been treated formally at the rank of division Progymnospermophyta or class Progymnospermopsida (as opposite).  The stratigraphically oldest known examples belong to the Middle Devonian order the Aneurophytales, with forms such as "Protopteridium", in which the vegetative organs consisted of relatively loose clusters of axes. " Tetraxylopteris" is another example of a genus lacking leaves.  In more advanced aneurophytaleans such as "Aneurophyton" these vegetative organs started to look rather more like fronds, and eventually during Late Devonian times the aneurophytaleans are presumed to have given rise to the pteridosperm order, the Lyginopteridales.  In Late Devonian times, another group of progymnosperms gave rise to the first really large trees known as "Archaeopteris". In Eurasia during the Middle Pleistocene, Canis falconeri gave rise to the hypercarnivore genus "Xenocyon", which then gave rise to genus Cuon (the dhole) and genus Lycaon (the African hunting dog).  Just before the appearance of "C. dirus", North America was invaded by genus "Xenocyon" that was as large as "C. dirus" and more hypercarnivorous.  The fossil record shows them as rare and it is assumed that they could not compete with the newly derived "C. dirus".  The large wolf "C. antonii" from late Pliocene to early Pleistocene China was assessed as being a variation within "C. chihliensis", and the large wolf "C. falconeri" occurred abruptly in Europe in the Early Pleistocene, perhaps representing a westward extension of "C. antonii". Xenocyon ("strange wolf") is an extinct subgenus of "Canis".  The group includes "Canis (Xenocyon) africanus", "Canis (Xenocyon) antonii", and "Canis (Xenocyon) falconeri" that gave rise to "Canis (Xenocyon) lycanoides".  The hypercarnivore "Xenocyon" gave rise to the modern dhole and the African hunting dog. The Gupta script (sometimes referred to as Gupta Brahmi Script or Late Brahmi Script) was used for writing Sanskrit and is associated with the Gupta Empire of India which was a period of material prosperity and great religious and scientific developments.  The Gupta script was descended from Brahmi and gave rise to the Nāgarī, Sharada and Siddham scripts.  These scripts in turn gave rise to many of the most important scripts of India, including Devanagari (the most common script used for writing Sanskrit since the 19th century), the Gurmukhi script for Punjabi Language, the Bengali-Assamese script, and the Tibetan script. Seguidillas boleras, or simply boleras, is a "palo" (style) of flamenco music based on the seguidilla poetic form and the Spanish dance known as bolero.  It is considered a member of the "cante chico" family of palos.  The term "boleras" was popularized around 1812-13 to designate female dancers who performed boleros.  Their particular style gave rise to the bolera school of dance, which was prevalent in Spain throughout the 19th century.  To distinguish the sung boleros from the dance itself, the term "seguidilla bolera" is used.  Towards the end of the 19th century, the bolero form was incorporated into the flamenco repertoire as a new "palo". Cuban culture encompasses a wide range of dance forms.  The island's indigenous people performed rituals known as areíto, which included dancing, although little information is known about such ceremonies.  After the colonization of Cuba by the Spanish Kingdom, European dance forms were introduced such as the French contredanse, which gave rise to the Cuban contradanza.  Contradanza itself spawned a series of ballroom dances between the 19th and 20th centuries, including the danzón, mambo and cha-cha-cha.  Rural dances of European origin, such as the zapateo and styles associated with punto guajiro also became established by the 19th century, and in the 20th century son became very popular.  In addition, numerous dance traditions were brought by black slaves from West Africa and the Congo basin, giving rise to religious dances such as Santería, yuka and abakuá, as well as secular forms such as rumba.  Many of these dance elements from European dance and religious dances were fused together to form the basis of la técnica cubana.  Cuban music also contributed to the emergence of Latin dance styles in the United States, namely rhumba (ballroom rumba) and salsa. Dance with a Stranger is a 1985 British drama film, directed by Mike Newell.  Telling the story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in Britain in the 1950s, this moving biographical British film won critical acclaim, and brought particular notice to the careers of both Miranda Richardson and Rupert Everett.  The screenplay was by Shelagh Delaney, author of "A Taste of Honey", and her third major screenplay.  The story of Ellis, which this film dramatises, has very considerable resonance in Britain since it provided part of the background to the long-term national debates which led to the progressive abolition of capital punishment from 1965 on. Gas Light (known in the United States as Angel Street) is a 1938 play by the British dramatist Patrick Hamilton.  The play (and its film adaptations) gave rise to the term gaslighting with the meaning "a form of psychological abuse in which false information is presented to the victim with the intent of making him/her doubt his/her own memory and perception".
