The 11th chapter of the Bible’s Book of Genesis says that God punished mankind’s arrogance for thinking that heaven can be reached by building the tallest tower possible in Babel. He created confusion among them by causing them to speak in different tongues. It is generally believed that that episode marked the beginning of men talking in assorted languages and being dispersed to the parts of the world that became their countries.

Director Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu and screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga have collaborated on three movies, although one may argue that they’ve been making the same movie over and over again. Their first film, Amores Perros, was about a group of seemingly random individuals in a Mexican city who literally collide with each other in a car crash. Their second film, 21 Grams, was about three seemingly random individuals brought together by another vehicular accident.

In his May 2006 essay on the greatest American novel of the past quarter-century, New York Times critic A.O. Scott commented on the "deplorable modern mania for ranking, list-making and fabricated competition" that fuels the frenzied obsession media outlets have with pitting art against art to craft supposedly crass headlines that disallow dispute, if only within the publication’s own pages.

                    [Summary] => There are numerous episodes of violence in Crash, Paul Haggis’ gritty drama about race relations in multi-racial Los Angeles. From a slur of invectives to virtual sexual assaults, from latent racism to blatant racial distrust, from contained anguish to impulsive acts of aggression. Violence comes in many forms.


But the movie is not all that. Crash is a clash of cultures — a crash of egos, frustrations and frailties that come in everyday living in a city as divergent as LA.

                    [Summary] => There are numerous episodes of violence in Crash, Paul Haggis’ gritty drama about race relations in multi-racial Los Angeles. From a slur of invectives to virtual sexual assaults, from latent racism to blatant racial distrust, from contained anguish to impulsive acts of aggression. Violence comes in many forms.


But the movie is not all that. Crash is a clash of cultures — a crash of egos, frustrations and frailties that come in everyday living in a city as divergent as LA.
