    Happy 45th birthday to this fantastic scream queen, Katharine Isabelle! My favorite horror movie starring Kat will always be Ginger Snaps and my favorite non-horror film is Falling Angels. They’re both great and classics. #Filmsky #Horrorsky #Moviesky #November

    You're right about Falling Down. The film has extra impact for me since I am from LA and traffic angst is something I'm very much acquainted with. Plus, Douglas walks through my old neighborhood of the Wilshire District.

    Today I watched Falling Down (1993) Very good movie, does a good job keeping focused on its' themes of societal decline and mental illness. A bit overzealous in some places (did we need THAT many slurs?) but I still overall really enjoyed it.

    His first turn as both actor and director was the 1909 short film "The Falling Arrow". In all, he would direct around 100 shorts, often acting in them as well. He would also be credited as writing 10 films, though with many of his directed works having no writing credits, more is likely.

    The more I learn about this film, the more pause it gives me. Didn't realize it was a different-time-spans film - shades of Mascha Schilinski's SOUND OF FALLING, which I saw *last year* at Middleburg and found stultifying. Worst of the fest. Hope to eat these words after seeing LA BOLA NEGRA today.
