Thank you to Michael Berman for choosing, providing considerable background information, and leading our discussion on Valentine's Day of, The Maltese Falcon, a classic film noir which many of us can watch over and over again.
Out film for March 14 is Falling Down, a 1993 film directed by Joel Schumacher.
Falling Down is a story about a middle-aged man, Michael Douglas, who is dealing with unemployment and divorce. He sets out one day to attend his daughter's birthday party. Enroute his car breaks down on a LA highway. He abandons the car and starts walking to the party. His frustration and bitterness increase and he has a number of violent encounters, including one with a veteran cop (Robert Duvall). The film raises issues of social justice, consumerism, and the decline of American culture.
