At least I did. I guess if I go back and watch the DVD again after watching that scene I might see her facial appearance seeming something similar I don't know. Something about that scene really grates on me and I think she was dolled up to resemble someone I knew personally back then.
Her hair seems longer over her forehead and something seems different about her eyes. A lot can be done with lighting in films. That actress Bridget Fonda was also a starring character in the South Carolina-based film the 21 July 1989 "Shag."
I have also thought that there wasn't really any point to watching that DVD because I can't find a precise date of record, as published by the racketeers, for the premiere of that film. There is a precise date listed that I guess is the actual premiere date when it became available to the general public in the theatres but there is also an imprecise date listed for a premiere at that racketeering Sundance film festival with the imprecise date listed as January 1993. I have been wondering since tonight watching for the first time if there was changes made to the content after the Sundance premiere and then the general public release that is listed for April 1993.
And of course there is the primary reason I have thought making this post from the very start. That actress, until the scenes just now, especially from the beginning of the film, reminds me in facial appearance of Tracie. I wrote about how she moved out of my house in Greer South Carolina in January 1993. The film reminds me of how she lived there when I was painting the walls of the house. The way I remember it, as that film reminds me, I would paint for a while and then I would sit around on the couch for a longer time smoking cigarettes and watching baseball games on television. I remember that because there was painting tarps and ladders and other equipment around the living room and kitchen all the time it took me to finish painting.
And 'Beth.' Was that her middle name? I don't recall. That was her daughters middle name. And of course, the film clarifies that Beth is short for Elizabeth.

Sid: You just feel bad for her like I feel bad for her 'cause her husband died.
Beth: Yeah?
Sid: Yeah. It's about the saddest thing there is. Losing someone you love.
Beth: That's never happened to me.
Sid: If you died, I couldn't stand life.
Beth: I have to go now. The new people are going to be here.
Sid: Go to my house.
Beth: No.
Sid: Just while you're looking for a place.
Beth: No I gotta go.
Sid: There's a friend of mine I know she's got a place on Agawon.
Beth: No. Agawon? No. No, I don't know where I'm going to go. Just somewhere else.
Sid: You can call me when you get there. I'll give you my number.
Beth: Sid, I'm going away. You're making me way too important. You just met me yesterday.
Sid: And today I love you.
Beth: Jesus, one day.
Sid: It's not important. It doesn't matter if - if it's a day or a year it can happen in a second.
Beth: That's a fucking animal thing. I've done that. I meet men, I go home with them and I just stay. There's no decision involved that's just like, that's what I do. That way I don't have to leave my life I can just leave theirs. I can't keep doing that.
Sid: We're not that way.
Beth: What way are we?
Sid: We're passionate, we're comfortable, we're -
Beth: We've been passionate! It's been comfortable! But it hasn't been important! Like you're making it.
Sid: It is important. You know that.
Beth: It was a night. It was fun. It was some great fucking but it's just something that happened.
Sid: It's not just something that happened. We're it. I'm the one for you.
Beth: The one?
Sid: Yeah.
Beth: [ scoffs ] I'm twenty eight fucking years old I've had lots of ones. You're just the latest.
Sid: No. I'm the last. You found me and it can go on forever.
Beth: No. No, Sid. Forever? You've got to understand it's just talk.
Sid: It's not.
Beth: It is. It is, I mean, come on, these things you say, come on, what? That if I die you couldn't stand life -
Sid: That's true.
Beth: No! You know what I done, you won't be there.
Sid: If you want me there. If I wasn't there it wouldn't matter who was you'd be alone.
Beth: No.
Sid: Beth. Beth, You love me.
Beth: No.

U.S. blasts 5 Iranian targets
Houston Chronicle News Services
MON 04/18/1988 HOUSTON CHRONICLE
MANAMA, Bahrain - The U.S. Navy today destroyed two offshore Iranian oil platforms, sank a defending Iranian patrol boat and bombed two Iranian frigates. Iran attacked oil facilities off Sharjah and fired on at least two U.S. vessels.
The U.S. attack on the Persian Gulf oil platforms came in retaliation for a mine explosion that tore a hole in a U.S. frigate last week, injuring 10 crewmen.
The White House said three U.S. warships ships blasted each Iranian platform. No U.S. casualties were reported in the attacks, and the Iranians fled prior to the shelling, the White House said.
Iran said a number of oil workers aboard the two platforms were killed or injured. It gave no details.
Defense Secretary Frank C. Carlucci said a U.S. helicopter also was fired upon during the raid but was not hit.
One U.S. warship fired missiles at two approaching Iranian jet fighters, but the fighters reversed course; it was unclear whether they were hit, Carlucci said.
He said an Iranian patrol boat fired on the U.S. cruiser Wainwright, which took part in the attack on one of the platforms. The Wainwright was not hit.

The flames bit him, and the hot smoke broiled his skin. His rifle barrel grew so hot that ordinarily he could not have borne it upon his palms; but he kept on stuffing cartridges into it, and pounding them with his clanking, bending ramrod. If he aimed at some changing form through the smoke, he pulled the trigger with a fierce grunt, as if he were dealing a blow of the fist with all his strength.
When the enemy seemed falling back before him and his fellows, he went instantly forward, like a dog who, seeing his foes lagging, turns and insists upon being pursued. And when he was compelled to retire again, he did it slowly, sullenly, taking steps of wrathful despair.
Once he, in his intent hate, was almost alone, and was firing, when all those near him had ceased. He was so engrossed in his occupation that he was not aware of a lull.
He was recalled by a hoarse laugh and a sentence that came to his ears in a voice of contempt and amazement. "Yeh infernal fool, don't yeh know enough t' quit when there ain't anything t' shoot at? Good Gawd!"
He turned then and, pausing with his rifle thrown half into position, looked at the blue line of his comrades. During this moment of leisure they seemed all to be engaged in staring with astonishment at him. They had become spectators. Turning to the front again he saw, under the lifted smoke, a deserted ground.
He looked bewildered for a moment. Then there appeared upon the glazed vacancy of his eyes a diamond point of intelligence. "Oh," he said, comprehending.
