What was the name of the film with Sigorney Weaver was trapped in her own flat?

Question

She wasnt actually a prisoner but a claustrophonic police psychiatrist.I think Holly Hunter+some other fellow were 2police officers trying to catch this murderer.

Answer 1

Yes everyone's right it is Copycat.
She was not claustrophobic, She was agoraphbic:
Agoraphobia an anxiety disorder which primarily consists of the fear of experiencing a difficult or embarrassing situation from which the sufferer cannot escape.

Agoraphobics may experience severe panic attacks in situations where they feel trapped, insecure, out of control, or too far from their personal comfort zone. In severe cases, an agoraphobic may be confined not only to their home, but to one or two rooms, and they may even become bed-bound, or a recluse.

Answer 2

Copycat is one of the best suspense thrillers I have ever seen.

It really is an outstanding movie because it sort of creeps up on you and suddenly you realise that this movie is way better than almost any other thriller that you have ever seen.

Sigourney Weaver does her best acting in this movie since ALIENS.
She is excellent when she is vulnerable and yet tough at the same time.

In other movies she is just tough, cranky, whiny, or mean. But here she is so tender and vulnerable, and yet she is the Woman of Steel!

Holly Hunter, who can be anywhere from
boring to pathetic to outstanding
does a good job here mostly because she sticks to her character and does not inject too much of her personality into it.

A great film, well directed and very well acted.

Answer 3

Yes it was Copycat.
I thought the scenes of Sigourney trying to cope with her phobia were really good, especially the final ones on the roof.
This has been my daughter's favourite film for years.
It had some good actors beside Sigourney and Holly:
Harry Connick Jr. was so creepy.
The lovely Dermot Mulroney, so sad when he gets killed
and Will Patton as Holly's jealous ex.
