Only the 2nd we've ever found! This is a guaranteed original one sheet poster for "Falling Down", Joel Schumacher's controversial thriller with a bravura performance by Michael Douglas.

I can't post any screenshots, obv, but this is a pro-killing-Nazis film! 🤩

Like Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare & Monuments Men, we get some of that tasty Nazi-stompin' action here 🤤

It's a good one, too. That Nazi gets what's coming to him (as so seldom happens IRL).

I don't think he has a second part to this. I think it's just 'What about them?'

Yeah, they're out there!

Actually, shit, man, you run an army-surplus store. You probably a see a bunch of 'em on the regular 😆

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
"And what about them muff divers?" What ABOUT them, dude? What do you even mean?

Ahhh, that's the good stuff 🤩

Great shots of the city in #FallingDown, for sure. It is, at times, a visually compelling and well-composed #film.

#FilmSky 🎥
I enjoy this kind of stuff. Look at that smog, Jesus. Bustling! I bet they didn't get signed releases for any of those people, either. That's guerilla filmmaking, baby! If you do it at a large-enough scale, how could anyone even complain?

I question the physics of the construction-site rocket-launcher incident 🤔

I question a lot of this movie, really. I think #FallingDown is kind of silly and very cynical. It also seems to only talk down to us?

Idk. I really don't know what to make of it. I don't think it's good, tho.

Every time William Foster is around other people, I'm terrified. It's gonna go badly for them

Maybe it's just the times, but I'm seeing Foster as a stand-in for every bitter, resentful mediocre white man in America (and God, there are so many).

This is not a subtle film 🙂‍↔️

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown
It's like a horror film. This is a jump scare, lol. Bah! He's there. They're all in danger!

Well, that's rarely a good sign... 🤔

Idk, what does the #DSM-5 say about clutching your estranged children's toys while watching home movies in the dark inside the house of their mother, your ex-wife, that you've broken into?

I doubt they're for it. I'm certainly not 😬

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
Huh! This seems... inauspicious. The way he's holding that thing is no good. I'm very glad the movie made the choice to get the wife and kids out of there asap, and didn't dangle their safety and well-being in front of us for effect.

I am *dying* laughing just watching the faces that Sheila (Folsom, played by Michelle Pfeiffer's younger sister, Deedee) is making at Foster during the Whammyburger scene 🤣

Worth the price of admission just to see her do her thing here. What a treat!

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
You can't really see it here, but... Here you can, I think. They bear some resemblance to one another. Deedee's got It, man. She's drawing my eyes constantly in this scene; she's stealing the scene, as they say.

😱

But also, this is so comically on-the-nose and devoid of specificity that it also seems kind of funny, at times. I'm picturing Ebbe Roe Smith at the typewriter, racking his brains for even-more-fucked-up typical-of-family-annihilator things Bill could say.

It's farcical, tbh 😅

#FallingDown 🧵
"And we'd all go to sleep together..." "We'd all sleep together in the dark." I was in the middle of a shiver of terror, when I also laughed, bc Bill is SO over the top and sort of a caricature of a man in crisis.

This whole goddamned movie (so far, at least) is just a series of boomer power fantasies. This is like if you asked my aunt Karen to write a Death Wish film, but just about her petty, day-to-day concerns.

Like, a whole rampaging revenge film tackling the pet-peeves of bitchy boomers 🤯

#FallingDown
"Wah, I want breakfast. Wah!" "Naturally, breakfast is served during the appointment for breakfast. You're late, dude. How is this my fault or what's 'wrong with society?'" But also, I think the movie thinks William Foster is a psychopath, too. I can't tell what this movie thinks to be honest. It's frustrating.

I think this movie maybe makes sense as, like, an allegory for stupid people.

This is sort of a bleak, allegorical depiction of America in the era (it's worse now, frankly), but told to us thru film as though we were the dumbest people ever to live.

And maybe we are! 🤷‍♀️

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
It's sort of in the spirit of Taxi Driver, except Travis Bickle is, like, a real and specific guy, a character. William Foster is, like, an allegorical stand-in who only says back creepy, gottem lines that old boomers wish they'd said to people. This is a bizarre movie. Who is this... for? Am I supposed to be... entertained? Like, I still don't know what (or why) this is.

Joel Schumacher definitely and famously directed #FallingDown, but if you told me Schumacher had had Brian De Palma come in as a second-unit guy and shoot a bunch of these sweaty, bug-eyed closeups in the opening traffic sequence, I'd believe you.

Reminiscent of his work 🤔

That is Sandra, per the script, which makes that Rachel Ticotin, who has also appeared in Total Recall, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, other stuff. Her character in this has got It. Yowza

[Stalking restaurant, pretending to make normal chitchat w/ its patrons, his hostages]

Foster: "And you, ma'am? How's the food?"

Whammyburger Patron: [vomits loudly onto her plate in terror]

Foster: "I think we have a critic!"

I guess this is satire?? Idk wtf to make of it 😵‍💫

#FallingDown 🧵
This kind of thing sets my nerves on edge. A white dude with a gun stalking a crowded place of business, being in control and insisting everyone act normal. The hairs on the back of my neck are standing up, but I think they're supposed to. I think that's the point of this movie. I'm withholding judgment, though. BLARGHARAFGHAFHADGH "I think we have a critic!" I guess I think he's like The Joker (kinda-sorta based on Flannery O'Connor's The Misfit, nfn, something they very much claim at her home in Milledgeville, GA, where they give tours and will totally get into it if you ask) (make sure to see the descendants of her peacocks while you're there, too; magnificent creatures). He's kinda-sorta got a point, a little bit, sometimes, but he's TOTALLY unhinged, and therefore, wrong even when he's right. People that glorify the Joker are annoying, too, and probably for the same reason(s).

2 thoughts:

- I don't think Foster's actually angry about the burger (or the graffiti or the shop's Coke prices)... 🤔

- Sheila Folsom (Dedee Pfeiffer) is still stealing the scene every time she's onscreen, omfg, what a fucking superstar 🤩

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
Yeah, dude, this seems like it's maybe more about that restraining order your ex wife put out on you and maybe the judge who wanted to 'make an example' of you (lol) plus whatever tf you do for a living than about the thinness of the burgers. He's not worried about consequences, though. From his standpoint, as a family-annihilator-to-be, he IS consequences. He doesn't near to fear consequences. He is the one who knocks. She's thinking, "Yeah, I don't eat here, man..." Ah! She's so funny. I guess I enjoy what the manager, Rick, is doing, too, but Sheila makes this scene SO MUCH funnier. Good God, I cannot look away from all the faces she's making. She's got a handful of lines, but it's her mugging when she doesn't have any that is so incredible to me.

I love the #ReelRank #NowWatching feature which displays all the #movies users are Now Watching in a ticker above the Popular This Week carousel!

... but when I'm the only one Now Watching something on ReelRank, it does kinda look like I'm obsessed with it 😅

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
Falling Down * Falling Down * Falling Down * Falling Down * jesus, is this ginger bitch obsessed with this film, or what!? No, if there were other people who were using the Now Watching thing, it would show them, too, and I wouldn't look so fucking crazy.

Uh, his intentions read as pretty family-annihilatory in this phone chat with his (I guess) ex-wife 😱

I went from hoping Foster saves Prendergast the trouble of going home to his bellowing wife to badly hoping Prendergast keeps Foster from 'going home.' I'm invested now 🤷‍♀️

#FilmSky 🎥 #FallingDown 🧵
"I'm coming home. I'm coming home for her birthday." EEKS! That's meant to be scary, though, I think. Fuck all those edgy douchebags who jokily try to 'reclaim' this narrative. I think the movie knows what it's doing, and knows this is an unsympathetic, deeply-unhinged, antisocial maniacal freak. Look at his fucking haircut! This movie's not a fan of its main character, I don't think.
