During the year 2002, a psychological thriller film called "You Belong to Me" was released, starring Lesley-Anne Down, Tony De Santis, and Barclay Hope. The film follows a widow, Dr. Susan Chancellor, who moves to Seattle with her teenage daughter, Caitlin, to start a new life. She works at a local hospital as a psychiatrist and soon becomes the target of a mysterious stalker, who seems to know everything about her personal and professional life. The stalker, who is called Jim Morgan, approaches her under false pretenses, pretending to be a new patient, and quickly becomes obsessed with her, believing that they were meant to be together.

As Dr. Chancellor tries to distance herself from Jim, things start to spiral out of control when he begins to follow her everywhere she goes, leaving her threatening letters and messages, and even breaking into her home. Despite her attempts to get help from the police, they dismiss her claims as paranoia since there is no physical evidence of the stalker's presence.

With her life increasingly in danger, Dr. Chancellor attempts to track down Jim on her own, and she finds out that he's not who he says he is. Jim has been manipulating her from the start, and his actions are motivated by his twisted desire to punish her for a mistake she made in the past.

As the tension builds up, the film sets up a thrilling climax, as Dr. Chancellor and Jim finally face off against each other in a dangerous confrontation that will determine the fate of both their lives.

Despite its familiar plot, "You Belong to Me" is an engaging and suspenseful thriller that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. Lesley-Anne Down delivers a strong performance as the protagonist, conveying both her vulnerability and determination in the face of adversity. Tony De Santis is chilling as the unhinged stalker, infusing his character with a sense of menace that makes him an intimidating presence throughout the film.

The film's direction and cinematography are also top-notch, effectively building up the tension and creating a sense of claustrophobia as the stalker's grip on Dr. Chancellor tightens. The use of close-ups and shadows adds a layer of foreboding to the proceedings, while the film's moody and evocative score enhances the suspenseful atmosphere.

The film's themes of obsession, revenge, and manipulation are explored in an intriguing way, with the script managing to avoid many of the genre clichés that often plague this kind of film. Instead, "You Belong to Me" offers a nuanced portrayal of a woman fighting against a malevolent force that threatens to destroy her life, and the film's resolution is both satisfying and emotionally resonant.

Overall, "You Belong to Me" is a gripping and well-crafted thriller that lovers of the genre will appreciate. While it may not reinvent the wheel, it certainly delivers on its promise of providing a solid and entertaining ride.

You Belong to Me is a 2002 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 30 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.9.
