Crash is more personal, it forces us to feel things from both sides
of a conflict or misunderstanding. I have never had a movie rip me around and around and yank my heart up and down my throat like this movie did.

I loved "Brokeback" because I felt it was a tragic love story and since the relationship started before the Civil Rights Act, I felt it could have been about a black man and a white woman and been the same. It was about living with intolerance.

But Crash, it was about seeing all the different faces of intolerance and misunderstanding in many ways.

3. You better be careful
Someone might come in here and accuse you of trolling.


The orignal poster here saw both films. I don't see how that counts as uninformed.

I saw neither. I will not comment on the films. Easy, eh? :)
