The Oscars' surprise

Rating: 8/10 (20 March 2009)

I had great expectations to see this movie, after all it was the Oscar award winner for best picture in 2005 and although it came as a surprise (even for the producers I would say) the reviews were great and it had the likings of a very good work. I don't recall the other nominees that year by heart but "Crash" was surely a good winner.
It leaves you with some bitter feelings in many scenes for the realism in which its based and for the most basic feelings of love, hate, racism and discrimination that our society brings. You get to feel anguished with some characters and also with yourself by thinking the same way.
The tiled Los Angeles that we see can be the reflection of many big cities around the world and the "curse" of the evolution of the society. That's just the way it is...
