Crash: Shows the Conflict between Races

I downloaded this film very early, and I heard people praise this film very early, but I didn't have the heart to watch it until I lost sleep tonight.

The film is full of thrills and touches from the beginning to the end. The encounters and changes of multiple characters show the contradiction between races and the emotional entanglement between people. The film depicts many characters, complex contradictions, serious thoughts, and many emotional changes. It can be said that the scope of the film is very broad, and usually films of this kind of subject matter are relatively boring and easy to get bored of. However, "crash" connects many characters through multi-line collisions. The structure is compact, the plot is vivid, and the rhythm is well grasped. At the development of the story, we were nervous and moved, and finally, we watched an educational film.

I admire the director's skill in the overall handling of the film. Each character can be well portrayed and has its own unique character and experience. In the final analysis, they all serve the "collision" of the film. Only when there is a collision will there be sparks, which is the biggest feeling I have after watching the film. Can there be more understanding and trust between people? Can discrimination against each other be eliminated? These problems are vividly shown in the film. They are not solved but raised so that we can feel and experience them.
