Up against this anti-hero is Prendergast, a veteran cop who has felt many of the same pains as Foster, but who serves as sort of a foil to him. And each one will chip away at what remains of his patience and tolerance for stupidity, fueling a rampage. Along the way, Foster will run across character types we've all come across: the 'war veteran' bum who is really just a lowlife looking to score some quick cash, an irate Korean grocery store owner, a homophobic neo-nazi army retail store owner, a crusty elitist country club golf player, super friendly fast food workers, young Hispanic thugs, and so forth. Having been pushed past the brink of sanity, Foster loses it and storms out of his car, walking around town and trying desperately to see his little daughter for her birthday, a daughter who is untouchable because of a court order against him by his estranged wife. Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazilįalling Down (1993) Tagged as `the adventures of an ordinary man at war with the everyday world,' Joel Schumacher's `Falling Down' tells the tragic tale of William Foster aka D-FENS, a now unemployed defense worker who finds himself trapped on a hot summer day in bumper-to-bumper Los Angeles traffic. Meanwhile Sergeant Martin Prendergast ( Robert Duvall), who is working on his last day before retirement, is following the wave of crimes and believes that the same man is responsible but the other detectives do not pay attention to him. William goes nuts and takes their gym bag with weapons proceeding in his journey of rage against injustice.
The gangsters hunt him down with their gang and shoot at him but crash their car. D-FENS continues walking and stops at a phone booth. Two gangsters ( Agustin Rodriguez & Eddie Frias) threaten him and he reacts by hitting them with the bat. This destabilizes William who then breaks apart the shop with a baseball bat and goes to an isolated place to drink a coke. Along the way he stops at a convenience store and tries to get some change for a phone call but the owner, Mister Lee ( Michael Paul Chan), does not give him change. He has a breakdown and leaves his car in a traffic jam in Los Angeles and decides to walk.
