Crash

I got to see this film Saturday evening. Now, I love movies and I've seen lots of them. I can't remember the last time I saw a movie I enjoyed so much. I had a great time with this one. I thought it gave a raw look at how people think and feel when they interact with others. The racial slurs were a little more than I've ever heard in even private company, but I think everyone has thoughts so vile when scared or angry. Some of the scenes seemed a little forced, but from 5 minutes in until the end of the film I was spellbound. You don't want to watch this if easily offended, but along the same lines as American History X, if you want to see the horrible and cyclic nature of racism with a good story to fill in the rant, you need to watch this film. I can't believe it's taken me this long to see this best picture winner.
