Watched "Crash" this weekend. Great movie! It was a toss up between "Talk to her" and "Crash". Both came highly recommended by friends. But the store didn't have any copies of "Talk to her" left. I am glad they did not; a friend who watched it was underwhelmed.
Great art forces you to question your beliefs. It leaves you a little less certain, confused, even a little less sure of yourself. Life is easy when you can make a choice between good and evil and black and white. The differences are stark, the choices are clear and the decisions uncomplicated. Life is rarely that easy. There are more shades of grey than black and white.
And that is what I liked about Crash; it made me question my beliefs. I won't be surprised if it gets an Oscar nomination. A thumping two thumbs up!
