CLIP DESCRIPTION:
William 'D-Fens' Foster (Michael Douglas) is approached by two Mexican gang members who don't take kindly to strangers.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
It's just not William Foster's (Michael Douglas) day. Laid off from his defense job, Foster gets stuck in the middle of the mother of all traffic jams. Desirous of attending his daughter's birthday party at the home of his ex-wife (Barbara Hershey), Foster abandons his car and begins walking, encountering one urban humiliation after another (the Korean shopkeeper who obstinately refuses to give change is the worst of the batch). He also slowly unravels mentally, finally snapping at a fast-food restaurant that refuses to serve him breakfast because it's "too late." Running amok with an arsenal of weapons at the ready, Foster -- also known as "D-FENS" because of his vanity license plate -- rapidly becomes a source of terror to some, a folk hero to others. It's up to reluctant cop Prendergast (Robert Duvall), on the eve of his retirement, to bring D-FENS down.

Everybody Gangsta till they encounter the over-taxed office worker
lmao
I don't think the psychoses of his character came from taxation
Yeah but you know the kind of people in real life
"Clear a path you motherf***r! I'm going home!" -- D-Fens
What happens if the over-taxed office worker is the Gangsta?
Nothing is more dangerous than a man who has nothing to lose.
Takes on a special meaning these days................
It's also been said,
"If you think tough men are dangerous, wait until you see what weak men are capable of."
well a sharks with laser beams on their heads is just about as dangerous LOol
I agree
@@Absolutely_puck_fakestine No because then the pressure would be intense, a man with nothing to lose wouldnt be as scared
Me watching in college: "What the hell is wrong with this guy?"
Me in my 40s watching today: "Oh, I get it now"
I'm 40 too, I feel myself so related to this film...
Ah you guys are still young. 40 gets a bad wrap lol. Don't swear it fellas. Age is just a number and I'm sure there are people alot older that would give theyre left nuts to be 40 again.
@@scentlessapprentice88 they're not complaining about being 40 though...
Amazed no one has attempted a produce a modern day remake of the movie.
I always felt like Bill
It's funny how he refuses to give away the briefcase but you find out later in the movie all it has in it is his lunch
It's the principle of it.
How much do you think a breif case like that is even worth because that guy in the park said he could sell that for a weeks worth of food
Lunch in the suitcase, it make the Lunch more classic.
My granma always wore an empty purse and kept her vallet in her pockets.
Best bait
His humanity
If someone is calm even when threatened with his life, just walk away.
Yeah that's a red flag
Yeah their more dangerous because they don’t care about life anymore
This is a movie, in London you'd get stabbed straight away with no discourse
@César Augusto Olimpio Nunes that's where I'm from and see it all the time
@Irfan Abigail roadman
I loved the gradual weapon upgrade across the movie. Bat. Butterfly knife. Bag of guns. Rocket launcher.
And in the final scene?... his daughter's water pistol!
@@kittykuchi7896 The most painful weapon of them all, regret.
Needs a mashup with Revell's Bolero, music which slowly in builds in intensity.
Haha yes. Like starting out on level 1 of gta but by the end you got a whole arsenal of weapons.
@@SuperDougie89 hmm. I wonder if that's where they got some inspiration.
Michael Douglas at his best. Hands down the performance of a lifetime.
I think he said during an interview that this was his best work!
Wall street is better
Black Rain was good but this movie stands on its own merits.
The Game is another great role by Douglas that holds to this amazing performance.
@@davedoesthingsdreaded fatal attraction when he was trying to cover up his cheating
As the years pass by, I relate to this movie more and more.
You're not the only one.
Yeah
And getting worse 😢
The older I get, the more I understand this character lmao!!
I sure hope not. He's psychotic. He ends the movie trying to kill his family, then commits suicide by cop when that fails.
Wow, you are truly terrible at reading people.
No, it was very strongly implied that the cop was exactly right.
Go back and watch it again, in particular, the scene at the plastic surgeon's house.
(Staring off into the distance) "And then we'll all sleep together... in the dark... and everything will be fine... just like it was before..."
You're meant to be seeing signs of severe instability, and comments like that, well... Warning signs. This is a glimpse into the head of a school shooter.
@Galaxi That's the trick with English, some words have multiple definitions.
OP used the word to refer to a sense of sympathy, of relating to him, identifying with him, considering his actions and decisons reasonable.
You use the word to refer to familiarity with his character and propensities. They're two different things. I know the character, but I don't relate to him. I can see why he does what he does but I don't identify with his choices, and I don't consider them reasonable.
In other words, the more you understand the character, the less you understand him. :D Isn't English fun?
@GalaxiOh, I didn't think that would happen.
In fact, I would go so far as to say he probably hasn't seen the movie, and has probably just seen the clips on youtube that echo right-leaning talking points.
@Galaxi All I'm saying is, this guy ain't batman. He's the lone gunman that batman catches in the first act.
When younger you think this is a movie about a guy going insane. When you get older you understand that this is a man's sane reaction to an insane world. At least that's the wisdom I saw in this movie.
@Liam Castillo the store wasn't totally destroyed just a little messed up and the golfer was like 95 and waiting for death, hell he was on heart medication. This movie most definitely shows a sane man in a insane world.
I couldn't agree with you more. I wish I could like it more than once
Yes I agree.
Nah just about life in a Democrat run city.
And soon will be red blooded patriots response to the radical left.
You don't need to be a 40 Year Old to understand this guy, I'm in my 20s and I totally get it.

Doubtful. The most dangerous person is the one with nothing to lose anymore or at least in they're heads. Doesn't matter who you are or what you look like.Anyone can snap at any moment and when that happens it doesn't matter if your deebo. If your in the way your becoming a statistic.

It was such a subtle dig.
@ You mean a part of the city he pays taxes for? Didn't realize it was anyone's turf. These degenerates dont even own the clothes on their back.
One of the best movies ever. Regular guy snaps on society. It’s beautifully done.
Watch rampage by Uwe Boll. It's his only good film. It's fantastic.
@@Styxswimmer nah bro you did not just tell that grown man to warch an Uwe Boll movie
@@pontagamingg275 I know most of his movies are bad (with many being listed as contenders for worst films ever), but Rampage is actually good. Even the critics said it was. Not the Dwayne Johnson Rampage. The 2009 version.
When I watched this as a kid, I thought he was nuts. Many years later, a 4 year stint in the military and 10 years as a welder for soulless RV shops later, I now see this guy is an American hero
"It says all that?" Asked with a very slight smirk. As if he was talking to a little child about a slightly ridicilous picture that the child painted. Love it.

John wick is second rate horseshit. Real action is Terminator 2, Predator, Die Hard, The Raid.
80s and 90s movies had this realistic thing in the air.
Edited: Movies had the feeling things could happen to me
I just love movies revolving sociopaths and psychopaths. You can feel when a man's on the edge, the acting feels so real
Oh right, actually Joker movie lives up to the realistic expectation as its inspired by taxi driver
It's called not having that goddamn blue and orange filter
@Lone Wanderer So what? There was only two of them and one of them only had a knife.
CGI was useless back then. Now it 85% of the movie's. It's a joke.
it's the lower fidelity and lack of CGI. dirty harry movies have it real hard. grimness
A very underrated movie
"Falling Down" is simply a classic--an insightful, perceptive, intelligent and also hilarious movie. "Falling Down" also features one of Michael Douglas's best performances.
"It says ALL that?" Lmao
Absolutely love the condescending air throughout it.

Sure. It was a crude form of....Aztec.

@@GreezyG74G that's literally what being calm means
"Listen fellas, I've had a really rare morning."
Haha. I always loved that line and his expression there
The way he shakes his head like he was annoyed with their stupidity is relatable. This movie rules.
When you get older.. you can truly understand, and even empathize with this movie and the main character. Very relatable when you reach adulthood
Especially nowadays with the pressures that society puts on us now more than ever over our appearance, our social status, our financial standing. This is an unfair, cruel, and dishonest world that we live in, and this man decided he wasn't going to pretend anymore. He isn't okay, and he's not going to pretend that he is anymore. He's done allowing people to walk all over him. The only difference between him and us is that he actually had the balls to take action. There is something special about this movie, there's something satisfying about seeing him fight back when all he wanted to do was be left alone.
You could not make this film today.
Dale Chawkins no you could if the Whites were the bad guys and the Mexican would be the victim.
jakep1979 You’d also have to include a random gay character somewhere in the movie so the SJWs shut up.
Of course you could. There are plenty of 'racially insensitive' movies being made today still. Look at my man Eastwood's Gran Torino. Or that Jodie Foster knockoff of Death Wish.
FungusMossGnosis made today? wasn’t gran torino made over 10 years ago?
jakep1979 why do you assume they’re Mexican?
"Maybe if they wrote it in fu?kin english, I could fu?kin understand it." 😂 Love it!

Only settlers. And as for modern America. Many languages here can be concidered secondary. But it sure is NOT Spanish.

BIG. IRON. ON. HIS. HIP.
he just threw his weapon
and the guy ran away without picking it upLOL
He ran because he was never good at baseball
Well he hit him with it and he fell down a flight of concrete stairs. Highly doubt fighting is what he wanted to do in that moment lol
"Clear a path, I'm going home !". Now that says it all.
I think he is relevant today. A lot of people are fed up.
And no different than a hundred years or a thousand years ago!!! Nothing new! Always look on the bright side of life... imagine whistling!!!!
@@vincentconti3633 You tell that to a man who has had his entire life ruined by some piece of crap byrocrat.
Yeah like rioters blocking the road I pay for when I want to go home from a 12 hour day.
Falling Down is about economic and societal strain on working class people and their treatment as an expendable commodity. Which is the whole part of the "not economically viable" scene. It had little to actually do with the inconvenience of being stuck in traffic on a hot summer day. That was symbolism of him reaching his melting point.
@@1stLtDavis people who got fed up before you
When someone says “I’ll take my problems elsewhere”.....just let them.
This is one of the most satifying scene ever.
The moment D-Fens attacks them sparks joy.
his name is Bill Foster D-FENS was license plate
He is the hero we needed now and then.
Funniest part is that we see later all he has in the brief case is some lunch.
The guy in the park begging him for money.says he's a veteran.he said what were you.the drummer boy.lofl
@@garyconner6151 Right? Then he changes up his story trying to tell him he was a Gulf War veteran. Maybe it was the heat, maybe it was his delirium from hunger and thirst, or maybe he was just a mental case as we would all assume. But either way, D-FENS wasn't buying it.
But it's all he has left and he won't give that up.
Yeah hahahahahaha... Principles man... Principles?!! God damn hero....
He didn’t respect someone lying about being a vet then realized less crap to carry guns bag is too heavy
I feel his anger, some people are just asking for trouble, it's only a matter of time before as person snaps
You mean his psychosis?
Thanks, that's the word.. I spent one whole year in a state hospital for a mental meltdown. Thank God nobody was hurt.
@@michaelluciano7774 Hey, Mike. Loved your stop-motion video. You should pursue that more, people dig that sort of stuff.. Betting its quite therapeutical aswell. Glad you're feeling better now, bucko!
Yes every person has a melting point. It's how much the body can take it, every person's body is different. Sadly, many people don't realize this. If a bunch of person are bullying their co-worker, let's say Michael Douglas here; they keep bullying him, tormenting him, mistreating him, humiliating him, especially when he has other problems to deal with too, it will eventually hit his melting point and will go into a state what many called insanity.
Sad but true 😔
Every major city in the United States needs about five of these guys and a couple punishers.
The LA smog is a great backdrop in this movie
I feel more like this guy every day.
you are now on an FBI watch list
Bro me too
@@drexelking8792 than you missed the point of the movie. By the end of the film he is no better than they are. It's what happens to people when too much pressure is put upon them by an uncompromising society.

Who could blame him.
Brutal😂
But later he himself challenges the the prohibition of trespassing too and downright violates "no trespassing" signs.
"You people". 😏
The dialogue for this movie, was pure masterclass!
*It's my understanding that this movie was filmed in 1992, while the Rodney King riots were going on, and that "real life" interfered with the shooting of the film. A true example of life (inadvertently) imitating art.*
This movie is so underrated. I'm 33 now makes so much more sense.
Very interesting to see the descent into madness. Great film.
do you fart while you come up with these deep musings?
It gets worse once you pass 40.
Indeed. I'm also 33. I didn't get it when I saw it back in the day. But now, damn.... You need to have live life to get this film.:)
@@darthkuruku5658 that's why you need to get your license to conceal carry a sidearm of your choice and then things will cool down a bit (at least mentally).
i like how there's only annoyance and anger in him, and not one single feeling of fear. he probably more annoyed than afraid when the guy take out his knife.
@Reunite The British Empire actually he had something. he cant miss her daughter birthday
honeybun33 he was probably just surprised
@@Proofesure and he turned the table quick. They underestimated him as the typical Mormon looking white guy.
Not feeling a healthy amount of fear if someone pulls a knife on you is not Courage, it's just Foolhardiness.
@G E T R E K T 905 I just meant in general. I forgot that was part of this particular storyline.
This character and this movie hits hard for me and for a lot of people, there is something deeply special about this film. It hits on something that is uncomfortable for many to talk about. There are a lot of people out there who have been pushed around but are just too nice to push back. Good people get the short end of the stick, and the bad ones get the rewards. This man was one of the very few that decided to push back, enough was enough, and there are people out there right now that are just one bad move away from fighting back, from ending it all. There was something uncomfortably satisfying about seeing this man get revenge on the people that pushed his buttons.
This movie is worth every penny.
To me, the funniest thing about this scene is the he was going to leave the briefcase behind ! He starts to walk away and they stopped him. He didn't care about the worthless briefcase and his lunch. He cared about the fact that even though he tried to be respectful and polite they still wanted to bully him.
This Michael Douglas character would of been a perfect Walter White.
Christian Chavez so true.
This movie was partial inspiration
You’re God Damn Right.
He would HAVE
Christian Chavez he’s one of my favorite actors of all time an amazing actor
That is the beauty of William Foster.He was like an ordinary guy whose life was ruined.He lost his job and rights to meet with daughter. Any frustrated men in his situation could behave like him after being insulted like in that scene.
Quite literally one of the best films ever made. EVER. Even if there was a fire.
For some reason, I can't stop laughing when he says, " Where you going, huh? You forgot the briefcase." LMAO lol
ohh I know the reason....because it was the punchline......you don't understand how jokes work and what they do to you eh?
i know right. "for some reason" jesus fuckin christ. welcome to earth, numbnuts. 263 other numbnuts liked it tho...
What is your goal with your post?
see that is what you should have asked me...but only if you cared about the "cause and reason". but now... it is what I ask you. Could it be the very thing you condemn?

Edit: this is an old movie... i'm 25 years old but I imagine a lot of people watching this are in their late 40's... which would explain not only the disconnect... but the general knee jerk reactions and willingness to assume and judge rather than investigate and grow in wisdom. Hence left behind in the sands of time. Tragic.
Sometimes the most dangerous people are the harmless looking ones in a place they shouldn't be.
I can relate. I am a guy who looks and acts innocent but I can turn into a gangster anytime. The best part is that it always catches people off guard.

Such a great movie, this and Pulp Fiction are some of the best 90s movies
This man gets me through many bad days
23 years later this movie still very relevant. White, black, Asian, Latino, it doesn't matter. The protagonist could have been any of those ethnicities...To a certain extent we can all relate to this guy. Taps into the feeling of helplessness against society that many of us have. There us a little bit of William in all of us.
z b - The white man's country is falling apart around him. That's why it's a white guy. Look how he's dressed 1950's/early 60's. Things changed while he remained the same.

>what are crime statistics

Yeah last week I walked into Burger King and demanded some breakfast while waving around my Tec 9
anyone can convert, that is true, however there is a jewish ethnic identity as you have said, Semites, and semites are not White, AKA Europeans..
Everybody gangster till the man goes psycho
Till any man go 1960 hitchcock psycho

"I'M GOING HOME!!!"
That's all I need to remember from this movie.
Outstanding acting (by all 3) and a very well-written scene in my opinion!
Well written lines, and the sarcastic way that Michael Douglas responds and how he delivers these lines are memorable. He clearly doesn't care about his life anymore, and he doesn't care what people think about how he responds to them either. He's done being nice to bad people, he's not going to be Mr. Nice Guy anymore, and there are people out there right now who are one bad move away from being this guy. This movie may be a dark comedy on the surface, but it really is a deep movie that anyone who's been forgotten can relate to.
What I always loved about confrontational scenes like this in so many movies is that I bet that the actors playing the bad guys are actually on really good terms with the main actors and really like them a lot.
I can see those two guys right now "We get to act with Michael Douglas? When can we start???"
Haha yes
It's even better knowing the briefcase only has an apple in it.
And a sandwich lol
Yeah, I guess it's more symbolic than anything. As he sees it, this world took everything from him, even his family. That suitcase, lunch, and government employee outfit - that put together image, it's all he has left. Just the illusion of a man with something to look forward to.

@@DFMagee he's dead, how would they do a sequel? I guess his adult daughter could step into the role lol
Sometimes the craziness is hereditary - and also some movies premise-- he did not die; somehow he lived to make another although that was a pretty convincing death spiral off the bridge.

They're really fun and honestly a great tool for toughening up your hands/knuckles, and even learning how to make deliberate actions with high risks/stress involved (using a live blade with the risk of slicing your finger open if you mess up). Tbh I felt like my reaction time/hand coordination improved a lot after learning how to do rollovers and other tricks with the balis... Oh I also lost a lot of blood and almost cut my toe off, but hey, was worth it.
Masao3k “balisong” knife, pendejo güey....
I think it the speed it opens up matches with what he said
I remember watching this when I was only 21 years old and I even related to it back then. Today I relate to it much, much more.
He put so much fear into the guy in the red flannel that after he threw the bat that could've been retrieved, dude STILL ran!😂🤣😂🔥💯🎉

Tali Sparta imagine if Michael Douglas played the joker

Edgy
These guys probably all think you’re edgy because they think this is from the movie Joker instead of a quote from a fantastically written Alan Moore batman comic
@@pterojacktylus2475 no hes posting quotes acting like he's deep who cares who wrote it .
I remember seeing this flick at the movies when I was a little kid. When he chased after him yelling “you forgot the briefcase!” everyone in the theater stood up and clapped and cheered.
I saw this with my niece and her friend at the theater at the time of it's release, and boy it was intense on the big screen. But that "you forgot the briefcase!!!" was my favorite line!
1:58 fails to open a butterfly lol
1:32 I know he had already trashed up the convenience store, but I think this was the turning point for him. You could tell he crossed the point of no return here.
Nah, he could get away with beating a few Mexicans. Self defense.
Shooting up the burger king, now that was the point of no return.
Yep, point of no return at 1:32. It would've been my point of no return as well.
@@billlupin8345 gangbangers (it doesn't matter that they're Mexicans)
It really doesn't. He makes it quite clear later on he doesn't care who the bystander is. Innocent or guilty, mexican or white, woe betide anyone that's near this guy when he freaks out.
This was just a well-timed freakout, such that nobody could pick up yet just how screwed up he is. @@nadirrabah6756
Alright gonna say it now SPOILERS, just in case anyone is coming around and wants to watch the movie.
The actual turning point for William was when he lost rights to his daughter and the America's national defense fired him.
2:51 my favorite line in the film.
I always love the 360 angle shot where they circle around him like a vulture. Well shot and acted.
Little did they know they circled a lion.
Pissing ground or whatever the damn thing is.... Best line to me :)
Keep in mind same guy who directed batman & robin directed this
How did that happen?
Still boggles my mind. I think I remember he apologized for Batman & Robin. Haha.
The Director has range i suppose, I guess he was capable of making two kinds of movies
an lost boys, 8 mm, phantom of the opera, phone booth. and I'll say that Batman Foerever isn't as bad as they say it is.
Batman and Robin was horrid, but he has a resume to back him up. He aint a hack if thats what youre getting at.
I forgot how good this movie is. I like the big-budget FX extravaganzas, but there's a lot you can do with just a simple premise, a good script, and good acting.
"YOU FORGOT THE BRIEFCASE!" I love this movie 😂
I love how they circle him like sharks at the beginning
They thought he was a seal
