"Crash" deserved the award |
|
Why? One simple reason: more people can relate to sterotyping and rascism than they can being gay. I as a straight woman may never know what it's like to live a life of a gay person. I love men and don't have any plan of changing. Of course I don't know the future but "Crash" deals with a universal theme. I saw this movie last week in my sociology class and it was beautiful. I loved how all the characters seemed to just intertwine together. One event after another. It was a very liberal movie and dealt with emotions and hardships people deal with of being different and always being accused. The rapper/actor Ludacrious character in the movie was even totally paranoid and thought whenever someone did something he didn't like to him they were being rascists and he had all these wild-eye theories. There's other things in there as well such as that. And Matt Dillion's character was a rascists bigot who learned how to change from a life-threatning experience with a person who he hurt before in the film. So for those of you dissing "Crash" I suggest you check out the film. It's a very beautiful movie and features all sorts of people who your average every day person can relate to. "Brokeback Mountain" got a shit load of awards where as "Crash" got one. So for those of you thinking it's some huge consperiacy I say please grow up.
