When you find yourself trying to remember a show (or any works) that's on the tip of your tongue but just out of reach, come here - the collective brain of the TVTropes community can probably help. Post all the details you can remember (examples help). If you're looking for a trope, head over to Trope Finder. Have general questions about tropes? Visit Ask The Tropers!
Bump. No one?
Someone on another site suggested The Great Santini or Buffalo Soldiers. I have not watched them, but I will check to see. It has to be something. I saw this in 2001-2002, if I remember correctly, it was a film but I saw it on TV, it was not the Hunt for Red October, but I saw that around the same time, so my mind is probably playing tricks on me. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas? We can get this.

The Notebook maybe? I think someone beats on a car in that, but I've only seen it once. Sorry I can't be more help.
Seems familiar. I will check that one out.
I think this was the beginning, a young woman visits her parents with her husband or finance, who looked like Joaquin Phoenix, can't remember what she looked like. The father was mad about something and started beating the young husband or finance's car like crazy, and his daughter pleaded him to stop, I can't remember if the mother did anything. I think this was the Hunt for Red October, but maybe it wasn't. It was in color. I think I saw it around the late 00s on TV. Can anyone please help? Thanks.
