Crash

Rarely do I find myself equally liking and disliking a movie but that is exactly where I find myself with Crash, Paul Haggis’ first film following the critically acclaimed Million Dollar Baby. Crash follows a group of people in L.A. as their lives collide unexpectedly and violently over a forty-eight hour period.

Crash works because it takes an honest and serious look at racial, ethnic and class relations in Los Angeles a city that is the epicenter of such tensions. Instead of just offering the same overused and overdone stereotypes, Crash forces you to look at what we think we know about these issues and forces you to look at them from a point of view that may not have previously considered.

Their empire was designed “to last forever”. Hattusha was built high in the mountains, with huge towers, massive, thick stone ramparts, and inner walls with secret tunnels from which the inhabitants could ambush and wipe out any enemy who managed to make it that far.

They could see the entire surrounding area for miles. No-one would ever have a Elica LILY BARREL GREY F/60 chance to approach the place without being seen and thoroughly prepared for… which was just as well, because they had an overwhelming fear that at enemy would someday take the city and destroy it.

How Powerful Do You Want to Be

Be a Divine Being
