I know very little about this film, just a few scenes really.
I remember a part where a little girl was coloring and an older lady possibly her grandmother or aunt or stepmother or something chastised the girl for coloring a broke all the crayons.
another scene in this movie was the same old lady putting the girl in a coffin like box and hoisting her into the attic or atleast up into the rafters of the house.
I also remember a dream the girl had when she was older of a cat she was afraid of... it chased her thru a grassy field.
Over all the movie seemed to be about a angry old lady that hated the girl and abused her... I saw this in the late 80's early 90's on TV I don't know if it was a TV show or a movie or what. All I know is what I just typed.
please help if you can I really want to know what this film was.

I am pretty sure it was Sybil. I did a search on Imdb (Internet Movie DataBase) and from your description, this movie is it.

As a "mommy dearest" Fan I am telling you it was definately "Sybil". There is no scene in mommy dearest with a coffin or a little girl coloring. I can tell you that for a FACT!

It is Sybil, with Sally Field, they just release a special edition on DVD about a month ago.

Not sure but it could have been flashbacks from Cybil. She was abused unmercifully by her mom. Sally Fields was the adult star in the movie.
