I tried to watch CArash (downloaded for free) and the racial epithets were numbing.
I don't see how anyone could be positive about such an insulting movie.

--- Quote ---LA Weekly writer Nikki Finke wrote "Hollywood showed tonight it isn't the liberal bastion it once was. That's pitiful if you're a progressive, and pleasing if you're a conservative." She also accused the Academy of being homophobic, writing "Turns out Hollywood is as homophobic as Red State country. In touch, not out of touch."

When was Hollywood a liberal bastion? ???
starboardlight:
And for Crash, winning that Oscar was the worse thing to happen to the film. The win saddles it with a higher expectation than it can meet. I met some people that saw it subsequent to it's win and they expected it to deliver something amazing, and it didn't. Crash is a good film, but amazing, it was not. If it hadn't won. I think those people would have liked it enough. They would have talked about its themes and issue, but instead they're talking about how they were disappointed. In addition, the controversy has also create some bad feelings toward the film. I know quite a few people who liked the film enough have now passionately hate it; refuse to buy the dvd, swore to never see any more Haggis films. The academy for what ever reason really did a disservice to the film going public as well as the film makers involved.
