Flashback: OFJ was to be Seagal's 'Citizen Kane;
I just stumbled on to this gem from 1990:

It sounds like this began life as a real movie before Seagal turned it into something far greater. And apparently in 1990, Seagal was trying to convince the world that he grew up in Brooklyn. Shame about that Oscar though.
(In case you're wondering, that no-talent hack Jeremy Irons won for 'Reversal of Fortune' that year instead. Damn Academy.)
