Crash

Firstly, I really enjoyed watching Crash, and thought that it was a very good film.

While I think that the film was succesful in raising many of the issues related to racism in todays world, I do feel that the directors made too much out of this aspect. I know that this is the main point of the film, but it must be remembered that like Foundas suggests, not every person in America is like one or another of those characters, and they are extremes at the different ends of the spectrum.

I related most to Ebert's review of this film, because as well as simply being a good film to watch, it also raised a lot of questions to keep you thinking for hours after you've watched it.

Not only is Crash an enjoyable film, but it also carries a strong message to today's world about progress, and the fact that while people may hold some beliefs initially, they can change, and become better people. I believe that it deserves all the awards it won, and many people dislike it simply because it beat Brokeback Mountain at the Oscars when it was not expect to.
