Plot
The film begins with a psychiatrist Dr. Park (Sandra Oh) interviewing Arthur Poppington (Woody Harrelson) in a psychiatric evaluation which he has confused for a test that has right or wrong answers. At first he is confused, somewhat delusional but he slowly opens up to Dr. Park regarding an incident in which he assaulted a dry cleaning store owner; a Mr. Debrofkowitz.
He starts his story one night where he is investigating shipment docks, and assaults a police officer who claims to be working undercover. Dooney (Elias Koteas) is a corrupt detective whose crack smoking, and having a prostitute in his company, leads Defendor to believe that he is under the employ of his arch nemesis, named Captain Industry. After leaving Dooney, he goes to a coffee shop while his description goes out on an APB. A nearby policeman hears it on his radio, and Poppington is arrested. The captain in charge, Fairbanks, (Clark Johnson) sparks a kinship with Poppington because both of their grandfathers had served in the war, a subject which came up upon Fairbanks recognizing the trench club that Poppington uses as a primary weapon. After releasing him, Arthur takes his weapon back and disappears.
It becomes apparent that Arthur lives alone in the government construction department that he works at during the day. His life is very solitary, but after another confrontation with Dooney, he meets Angel, the prostitute who was smoking crack with Dooney. He is brutally beaten by Dooney's friends and she helps him recover. He learns that she is aware of Captain Industry's whereabouts and he allows her to live with him because with Dooney mad at her, she has no place else to go. For $40 a day, he enlists her help in apprehending Industry. It is also revealed that Poppington's mother Fae had left him as a child, and drug abuse and possibly prostitution killed her some years later. His grandfather said that the "Captains of Industry" did her in. As a child he misinterpreted and got the impression that one man was responsible. Angel later reveals that she had been lying about her name, and about Captain Industry due to a personal vendetta she has with him. She reveals that her real name is Katrina Debrofkowitz.
Arthur's boss and close friend Paul, (Michael Kelly) becomes concerned that Arthur is living at the construction depot with a prostitute. Paul tries to help Arthur, and offers him the opportunity to come and live with him and his family. Arthur rejects the offer. Paul gives Arthur a cell phone in case he is ever needed. That night, Arthur ventures out to spy on "Captain Industry" and Dooney in a meeting, but accidentally makes himself known. After a short chase Arthur calls Paul's line before he is shot by one of the henchman's machine guns, Paul forces Kat to take him to where Arthur was supposed to be that night, and they call the paramedics. While undergoing surgery, Paul orders Kat to leave Arthur alone. They are relieved when they find out that he was shot with training bullets, and not the actual thing. Before leaving, Kat visits Arthur, who is lying unconscious in recovery. She reveals the reason she ran away was because her father was physically abusing her. After she leaves, Arthur opens his eyes, having heard everything. His anger that anyone would do that to her leads him to walk down to the mall in his hospital robes, beat up Mr. Debrofkowitz at his store, throw him through the glass window of his shop, and stuff him into a garbage can.
After Dr. Park absorbs the story, tells Arthur that the thing she admires most about him is his honesty, though she implies that there are better ways of dealing with someone like Mr. Debrofkowitz. A hearing prior to their meeting revealed that Paul came to defend Arthur after the issue at the mall, telling him about Arthur's delusions of being Defendor, and the judge mandated a psychological evaluation to determine if he can be returned to society or locked up in prison. A reporter approaches Paul and convinces him to let her run a story about Arthur as the Defendor, and he agrees in hopes of some positive approval ratings. It works, people become inspired with Defendor's attempts to save lives and fight crime despite his personal risks and arrest. The judge orders Paul be Arthur's guide to reintroduce him to society, which is nearly ruined when news that he can never become Defendor again causes Arthur to nearly go ballistic. Depressed about having to leave Arthur, Kat becomes desperate for a hit, and so tries to get back with Dooney. However, knowing her affiliation with Defendor, he instead holds her hostage, and sends Arthur a threat to not reveal anything he had learned to the police. Arthur decides to take the risk to save Kat and once again dons his persona. Kat manages to escape Dooney and the pair reunite. She becomes devastated when he reveals he still plans to go after Captain Industry, and orders him to take a gun she stole from Dooney for safety. He reveals his plans to the police but escapes before they can take him into custody again, instead leading a trail of road flares to the docks. Defendor manages to subdue Industry's henchmen, but does not defend himself against Industry himself who fatally shoots him. As Arthur lays dying, Kat runs to help him. She promises to stop smoking crack and to get a job outside of prostitution. In an earlier conversation Kat revealed she had always had a talent in writing, that Arthur had described as being "like Lois Lane". She promises to be like her and Arthur dies in her arms.
Later, it is revealed that Dooney and Captain Industry were arrested for their crimes. Dooney is sentenced to 26 years in prison and Industry is extradited to his home country. Arthur's legacy lives on, as a memorial is held for Defendor under a spray paint mural that was drawn in his honor. Dr. Park and her daughter attend as well, remembering the man and inspired by the hero that no one could see. The last shot of the film is of Kat sitting at her typewriter, writing stories as a wasp flies into the room.
Production
Defendor is actor Peter Stebbings' first produced screenplay and his debut as a director.[4] He wrote the first draft of his Defendor script in 2005 when the idea came to him "in one whole piece".[4] He failed to sell the script to numerous major Hollywood studios because it did not fit into a particular genre; he said that "[The studios] didn't want to touch it, but all the actors and their agents wanted to."[7] Nicholas Tabarrok of independent production company Darius Films agreed to back the project after he "was hooked from the very first read", and agreed to fly Stebbings from Toronto to Los Angeles so that he could meet the actors.[8] Ellen Page was at one stage attached to star when production was slated to begin in 2007, but pulled out.[9] He collected financing from Canadian film fund Telefilm Canada—about one quarter of the film's C$4 million budget—and "turn[ed] over stones to find the rest". After he added all of his personal savings, the film was still $100,000 under its financial requirements.[4] Though principal photography was scheduled to take place from November 21 through December 17, 2008,[8] it was delayed until mid-January 2009 and continued through the end of January.[4][10] Filming took place in and around in Toronto and Hamilton, Ontario.[8] Specific filming locations included the Hamilton City Centre,[11] Humber River Regional Hospital and a Toronto warehouse
The producers consulted with workers from Toronto's social services, including activist Wendy Babcock, to help Kat Dennings develop her character; they wanted people with experience using crack cocaine and doing sex work so she could create a more realistic character.
Release
Defendor had its world premiere at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival in September.[12] Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions Group acquired the distribution rights to the film in the United States and most of Asia, Europe and South America. The Canadian rights were pre-sold to Alliance Entertainment as part of the film's financing deals
However, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions Group decided to not release the film in the United States theatrically, so Darius Films (which produced the film) self-released the film in the United States theatrically on February 26, 2010.[14][15][16] It has also been released to DVD on April 13, 2010
