Falling Down

[raphael_is_cool]

I know it's a very old film but it's one of my all time favourites. Such an interesting 'topic', great performances and a well-made film.

I can kinda sympathise with Foster, not what he's doing but what he's been through. His temper has a personal resonance to me and I know my Dad had a temper in a way kinda like him from looking back at home videos. It just goes to show the difference an understanding wife and such can make. Of course I'm just ranting like it's some true to life story that it's not but it makes me think how differently the film can be understood too

It also has a good little mix of dark humour in there too :D

It is one of my favourite movies ever, Michael Douglas is just perfect.

"Bad news. Your little car's gonna drown. And now you're gonna die wearing that stupid little hat. How does it feel?"

This movie is pure greatness. I mean, I often think "why don't these people just snap? Why do they keep their sanity when live itself is so ******?"

The best scene is the one in the Burger restaurant. "What is the problem with this burger? Doesn't it look bigger and tastier on the ad? That's what I ordered, and what do I get? This"
