Production[edit]Falling Down was being shot on locations in Lynwood, California when the 1. Los Angeles riots began. By April 3. 0, the riots were sufficiently disruptive to force filming to stop early that day.[3] Film crews produced more footage inside of Warner Bros. Studio in Burbank as the riots continued. By May 4, when the crew intended to resume in Pasadena, initial requests to do so were denied, causing delays.[4] The tension around the riots was something that the filmmakers deemed to have an effect on the finished film.[citation needed] Filming wrapped in late June 1. In an interview less than a week before the Falling Down's release, screenwriter Ebbe Roe Smith gave his interpretation of what the movie was about.

And that way, I guess you could say D- FENS is like Los Angeles. For both of them, it's adjust- or- die time.."[6]Reception[edit]Box office[edit]The film grossed $4.

Metacritic.[1. 0]Vincent Canby of The New York Times called it "the most interesting, all- out commercial American film of the year to date, and one that will function much like a Rorschach test to expose the secrets of those who watch it."[2] Philip Thomas of Empire magazine wrote in his review of the film, "While the morality of D- Fens' methods are questionable, there's a resonance about his reaction to everyday annoyances, and Michael Douglas' hypnotic performance makes it memorable."[1.

James Berardinelli wrote: "Falling Down is replete with gallows humor, almost to the point where it could be classified as a 'black comedy'."[1. John Truby calls the film "an anti- Odyssey story" about "the lie of the American dream".[1. He adds "I can't remember laughing so hard in a movie."[1. Roger Ebert, who gave the film a positive review at the time of its release, stated of Foster: What is fascinating about the Douglas character, as written and played, is the core of sadness in his soul.
