Deja vu!

I've got deja Vu with this movie. According to my imdb, I have never seen this movie - it's never been logged, and I don't remember watching it. But, I must have seen it sometime when I was a kid or something, because by the time they got to the scene of the man assaulting Patty, it seemed so familiar. Maybe it's because similar scenes are in other movies, but this whole movie feels like deja vu. It's so strange to feel this, while watching this film.

As for the film itself, very good. Per usual, TV movies of the '80s and '90s are excellent. I enjoyed it, and just like the movie about Joan Rivers, where Joan played herself, it's interesting to see Patty playing herself during certain parts of this movie. It must have given her a lot of deja vu dish and everything comes full circle!
