Thought this would be a left leaning knee jerk liberal extravaganza but was very surprised at a audaciously fair treatment of race relations in America (and to some extent the rest of the world.) No one escaped scrutiny or came across as an angel or a villain but a very human mixture of both.

While many have criticized Crash as contrived I thought the story was brilliantly done with a great screenplay, excellent direction and even perfectly toned soundtrack music.

Every scene worked for me and the way the story and events were interwoven over a dozen characters was just way above average. Lastly, the acting was overall excellent. Kudos to Paul Haggis!

Music is Emotion
