FALLING DOWN (1993) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Joel Schumacher

Written by - Ebbe Roe Smith

Starring - Michael Douglas

"An unbearably hot day in Los Angeles is the setting for a man’s break down and show of frustration on social ills. This film is seen as the ultimate ordinary American white man anger movie at the displacement of power. It works as a satire with its use of black comedy, a drama with its heavy dramatic background stories, but also as a thriller with its genuine build up of tension. Michael Douglas in the lead role is perhaps at his most memorable."
