CAPE FEAR '91 question
 

Hello friends!!!

I luv Scorsese's CAPE FEAR. However, there is a question I've had about the film ever since it came out back in '91: In the scene where Deniro (Cady) gives back Jessica Lange the dog collar, DeNiro notices Juliette Lewis. It appears that he is noticing her for the first time. But didn't he know that Sam Bowden had a daughter in the beginning of the film when he was following the whole family to the movie theatre and ice cream parlor? Someone please expalin.

Thank you,
KC
