Supplementary Material
It has been recommended that you watch the Cape Feare episode of The Simpsons (Season 5, Episode 2), which is available on Disney + and also on Amazon Prime. I have also found it broken up into small clips on YouTube:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5

The episode of The Simpsons references the 1991 Martin Scorcese film Cape Fear starring Robert De Niro, which streams on Hulu and Amazon Prime. That is a remake of the 1962 original Cape Fear starring Robert Mitchum, also on Amazon Prime.

Here is a trailer for a production of the play:
