电影Crash影评

CrashCrash is a film that reflects some typical problems of the present-day society in the US, including racism, severe security conditions, the conflict between the immigrants and so on. In my opinion, despite of the fact that it also provides us with some other stuffs, but do you know why the talented director added these to the film? I think he added with the intention of stressing the more and more complex and eye-drawing security problems of America.We can see crash, murdering and robbing all occurring in the film, making us badly worried about the safety of everyone. On account of the policy that an American civil has the right to possessing a gun, there is no doubt that gun is frequently used to threaten others and what’s worse is that a gun murdering sometimes comes to existence , with a life fading away and scores of relatives and friends continuing crying.Two black men robbed a black couple and drove their car away by using a gun at the beginning of the film. What’s more, a Spanish making a living by repairing locks made a recommendation that the door be replaced with a new one when he was fixing a lock for a storekeeper. However, not only did he refuse, but also he misunderstood what the Spanish said and had an argument with him. Next morning, he was so sad to find that his store had been stolen that he took a gun to pay back the Spanish. Although the consequence arranged by the director was that thebullet didn’t kill anybody, I want to ask whether the bullets will penetrate anybody or not in real life. What made us shocked most was the plot that a man killed an African-American when they had a disagreement using a gun. Even if one might say that he didn’t want to kill him or he killed him by accident and so on, but what I had to say is that a life had passed away and speaking more made no sense.In my opinion life is priceless and nobody has the right to give an end to other’s life. In America, it is the gun that make security conditions get worse and worse. Accordingly, the way to amend the security problems is to take control of guns. But how to do it. As far as I’m concerned, firstly Americans should develop an attitude towards respecting life and get rid of guns on their own initiative. Secondly the media should take advantage of their facilities to inform people of how bad it is to own a gun. Thirdly the government should take immediate measures to limit the civil to have guns or even forbid having access to guns.I believe as long as the number of guns decreases, every American with different colour of skin, different ancestor and different background of culture will live in harmony with each other.。

crash观后感

影片一开始那个黑人警察在与人撞车后,说了这样一段话:“这就是撞击的感觉。

你走在任何城市里,你都会和别人擦身而过,别人也会撞到你。

在洛杉矶,没有人会碰到你,总是在这层金属和玻璃的后面。

我想,我们很怀念那种触碰的感觉。

我们撞到一起,从而感受到某些东西。

”《撞车》的英文原名为crash,原意是“撞击,冲击”,看到黑人警察的这段开场白,就会明白“撞车”只是个引子,而随着故事的倒叙,事件、人物一样样呈现时,我们才能更好地理解影片取名crash以及这段话的意义。

长达两小时的电影并不可能简单地为观众讲一个撞车的故事。

每个人的生活就像洛杉矶马路上行驶的车辆,在一层金属与玻璃的隔离下井然有序地前行着。

但危险和不安就如同暗流一般,两辆车随时可能追尾。

其实不止是车与车,人与人,国家与国家,种族与种族——只要是两者间存在差异,就会发生摩擦乃至撞击。

只有存在这样的撞击,才会促使我们去相互触碰了解。

Crash用一系列的撞击来引发观众的思考。

看完电影的第一感觉就是,电影容量非常大,内容非常丰富,以至于下笔时都不知道该从何处说起。

那么先从影片最为明确反映的主要问题来谈。

最显而易见的是种族歧视问题。

当影片回到“昨天”,展开倒叙时,最先出现的两个黑人青年就针对在餐厅里的遭遇,一路争论着。

梳着小辫子的青年因为餐厅里的服务生没有问他要不要咖啡,认为自己遭到了歧视,并且他还强调那个女服务生也是黑人,估计他自己也无法理解为什么连自己的同胞都歧视自己。

而接下来的情节发展来的相当突然。

一对白人夫妇迎面走来,妻子在看到两个黑人时就害怕地往一旁走开了。

妻子的表现是十分不明显的,但青年被彻底激怒,他成功劝说了自己的同伴,报复式地抢劫了白人夫妇,开走了他们的车。

在这样一段简短的情节中,我们可以看到在美国这个大熔炉中,种族歧视问题已经深入到每一个人的血液中。

正如这个黑人青年所表现的,他对这个白人主导的世界太过敏感,在憎恨被白人歧视的同时,他对自我的歧视也是与生俱来。

Comments on CrashThe movie Crash shows us the interpersonal conflict and cultural crash by several stories interweaving in Los Angeles. The sociologists believe that crash is inevitable in our society, let alone a city with different kinds of people . Although American dream is always appreciated, there is no denying that racial discrimination in American country is so serious. With the misunderstanding between people, they fight for the interests and positions in the society. Crash in this movie has more than one meaning, it’s not just a collision involving cars. It also represents a contradiction between people from different culture background.Crash means contradiction and fighting. But in meanwhile, one of the sociologists suggests that crash may also have a positive impact. In the movie, the conflict does represent the human nature and sincere. You think you know who you are. You have no idea :A veteran police humiliates a woman but he saves her life bravely in the traffic accident. A woman who distrusts her colored steward finds the warmth and friendship finally etc. Some stories are end with hope and love but some not. Because in the diverse society, people are forced to change him inside even he doesn’t know at all.The most important feature of this movie is the method by several clues interweaving at the same time. They come together and make the story more true and vivid.As a dark comedy, this movie emphasizes the color and music, for example, the crash seems more fiercely with a low and deep music and dark pictures. On the contrary, the beautiful sunset and warm music are shown after the woman is rescued.In a word, this movie conveys many deep thoughts and deserves 3 Oscars so much.。

英语影评——撞车(crash)

院系专业:化学化工与材料科学学院化学系年级:09 学号:200901010101 姓名:金晨Set in modern day Los Angeles, the Oscar-winning movie Crash attempts to unabashedly expose racial prejudice in this country through the depiction of numerous characters of different cultural backgrounds whose lives intertwine in multiple crisis situations. The large, impressive cast includes the following characters: two young, black male criminals, a Latino locksmith and his young daughter, an Iranian convenience store owner and his grown doctor-daughter, two white, male police officers, a black health insurance employee, a black detective and a Hispanic detective, a successful, black Hollywood director and his black wife, a middle-aged Korean couple, and a white district attorney and his white wife. Simply by reading this list it is clear to see that Crash takes on the problematic job of representing so many ethnic groups for a mere 1 hour and 47 minutes, which makes me wonder if the movie actually perpetuates stereotypes or if it challenges them. What Crash does successfully do is rouse viewers’ emotions, to the point that they feel the need to squirm uncomfortably in their seats. That in itself makes me give Crash an overall positive rating. Racial issues are complex and emotional, and bringing these issues to the forefront is (almost) always positive. While some parts of Crash seem far-fetched and are less realized, other plotlines, which left me breathless and near tears, are more successful and could probably stand alone as their own stories. Knowing that there is no possible way to acknowledge all the complexities of this movie, this review will attempt to address the most powerful, effective scenes and the messages they provide.The movie’s opening scene depicts the aftermath of a bad car accident, and this becomes a metaphor for the basic message flowing through the film. Crash suggests that we actually need each other: like car accidents, we “crash into each other just to touch each other,” states Don Cheadle’s character, a detective. But like the word “crash” suggests, the interfaces between the characters in Crash are far from loving, and infected with fear. In fact, the characters of the movie seem mostly isolated and unable to connect even with those who have the most in common with them. No one is guiltless; we are all victims and offenders of cultural bias. Yet we desire the contact of others. The movie suggests that we don’t know how to reach out to others in a healthy way.Not only do we fail to understand those around us, but another major theme of Crash is how much we lack individual self-awareness. Matt Dillon’s police officer character makes this bleak statement to a rookie cop: “Think you know who you are? You don’t have a clue.” His character is certainly one of the most intriguing in the film. He begins the story as one of the most despicable movie characters I have seen in a while; he abuses his power as a policeman and pulls over a married, black couple. He proceeds to grope the wife against the car, while seemingly taunting her husband. It is excruciating to watch, but it is this same awful man, who, later in a heart-wrenching scene, puts his own life in danger and rescues this same woman from a burning car. Perhaps it is a temporary change from bigot to savior, and he is likely surprised by what he is capable of doing for another human being. Still, for a moment of his life he is a hero. The only constant in the characters’ personalities in Crash is that they areinconsistent, and no character seems to know who he or she will be in times of tension and emotional distress. Perhaps one of the most interesting messages in the movie is the thought that in order to know ourselves, we must try to connect with those around us. We must see that we are basically the same. Otherwise, we remain lonely and ignorant as a society.The Iranian character in Crash also plays an important role in the film, one that raises many questions. Ultimately, at the end of the movie, he may be the easiest to dislike. He does evoke empathy as he faces discrimination by a gun store owner, who compares him to terrorists and calls him a “rag head,” even though he points out that he is Persian, not Arab. His frustration over not being able to adequately communicate in English also exposes the difficulties of his life in America. Of all the characters in Crash, it is most obvious that he immigrated to America and cannot successfully acculturate, and he appears completely emasculated. He reacts to tense situations (i.e. his convenience store is robbed) with so much palpable agitation and fear that a viewer can easily predict he will do something erratic and terrible. Indeed he does, by taking an “eye-for-an-eye” approach to punish t he kind and misunderstood Mexican American locksmith who he blames unfairly for the store’s robbery.The Iranian character goes so far as to dig up the locksmith’s information out of the trash, go to his house, and attempt to shoot him in his front yard, which requires forethought and planning. In the midst of this would-be murder scene, the viewer is led to believe that the locksmith’s innocent daughter will take the bullet instead. Fortunately this does not happen, as, unbeknownst to the Persian man, the gun is loaded with blanks. This is thanks to his grown daughter, who predicted that he had the capability of doing something dreadful with the gun.Out of all the irrational behavior depicted in Crash, the damage this character creates seems the worst. Although he calls the locksmith’s little girl an “angel” who saved him from doing something terrible, there appears to be few repercussions or lessons learned from his behavior. In my view, nothing spiritual occurred to keep him from killing the locksmith or the locksmith’s little girl; instead, the Iranian man’s daughter had had the wherewithal to fill the gun with blanks. It seems like he takes no personal responsibility for his actions, and is still overwhelmed with uncertainty. In the post 9-11 world, all of this is certainly intriguing to me. Is it possible that there is a more blatant bias from the creators of Crash when it comes to portraying someone of Middle Eastern heritage? I suppose one might argue that the Persian man’s grown, rational doctor-daughter is a character that allows for some balance in the portrayal of those of Middle Eastern descent; additionally, she also illustrates the potential divergence from one older generation to the next, but unfortunately her appealing character is not emphasized in the movie.Like the Persian man, Sandra Bullock’s character in Crash also turns her fear and feelings of powerlessness into anger – emotions that are so closely linked – and she finds herself utterly isolated. Her character is the wealthy wife of a district attorney, and she seems to have everything she could want. However, she acknowledges that every morning she wakes up full of rage, and does not know why. Early in the movie she is walking with her husband to their car at night and she sees two young black men and feels nervous. Her anxiety turns out to bewell-founded as the black men put a gun to her head and car jack the couple’s SUV. The scene turns the idiom that “you can’t judge a book by its cover” upside down, because the two men fit a negative stereotype, thus reinforcing the prejudices of Bullock’s character. (Interestingly, she most likely fits the two black thieves’ negative stereotype of who she is.) In the end, Bullock’s character comes to the realization that her “best friend” is actually her Hispanic maid. She has been rude to this maid, and realistically is paying the maid to take care of her, so clearly this is not a true, balanced friendship. Yet the only one to comfort Bullock’s character when she is bedridden with a broken a nkle is this unlikely maid. Bullock’s humbled character grasps the confused maid in an embrace, forcing herself to push aside her superior attitude. We need each other, Crash suggests once again.But is there hope for us as a society? No one is innocent of cultural prejudice. This a belief reiterated numerous times throughout Crash, sometimes dramatically and sometimes humorously, and almost always laced with irony. The question is: how do we work through our biases and simply get along? If the travel saint in Crash is a metaphor for the journey in life that we all take toward self-understanding, then some of us are certainly at different places along this path, but with effort are moving forward. Sadly, some of us may remain stuck, figuratively ramming our heads against walls as we are forced to interact with others who are different than we are.I believe that Crash may offer a bleak view of racial relations in our country; however, some of the last scenes show snow falling in Los Angeles, which is certainly an unusual sight. Perhaps this is intended to show some sort of cleansing, or hope, yet there is also the image of fire as a car is engulfed in flames. In our society something will always continue to burn. The illegal Thai immigrants dropped off in the middle of Chinatown at the end of Crash represent how the cycle will start once again; they will have the challenging job of acculturating into our society and others will take out their fear and anger on them. Yet this country has so many valuable things to offer to each one of us, even when it is so difficult to look beyond our differences.Crash successfully forces viewers to address their own cultural backgrounds and their experiences with those of other races. Doing this is imperative if we are to reach a peaceful existence with each other in our melting pot of a country, yet it is too easy to succumb to fear and avoid analyzing how we subsist within our world and how we relate to others. After all, when it comes to racial equality, ignorance is not bliss; it hurts all of us. Especially within a city like Los Angeles, we never know when the truth will crash into us and we will be forced to face who we are through the eyes of others, at least superficially, no matter how difficult it is to take a raw look inside and outside of ourselves.。

My View of CRASHA great film, and here are some pieces of my thought.First, racial discrimination is involved in this film. People are rated by color or their race. Some of the white are always high up in the air in a mixed and open big city such Los Angeles just like Anthony, the black burglar, once said. Yeah, this is the fact that no one can deny. But what makes this dramatic is the different idea between Anthony and the other burglar, little brother of an black detective, who doesn’t think they are treated differently. In my opinion, in order to eliminate prejudice to black people, not only white people but also the black themselves should change their attitude. Anthony didn’t agree with that so he saw race discrimination everywhere, which left him in great shadow and push him to rob the “wicked” white people. But after he saw a white policeman help a black director out of trouble, he changed his mind. He got on a bus that he would never take before and found that the white and the black could sit together peacefully. He found that the world full of sunshine and he even liberated the trafficked people. Sometimes inequality comes from outside. Sometimes it is born of our mind. This idea is not about only Anthony or racial discrimination, but is also appropriate for everyone in every situation.Secondly, the film tells us that there is only a thin line between sheep and goat. And there is no absolute good or bad person. Officer Ryan seemed to be a jerk, but the jerk helped a woman out of death. Tommy is upright, but he killed an innocent young man by accident. In addition, don’t make decisions when in bad mood. The mad Miss Jean blamed her housekeeper only to find she was the only friend whom she could rely on. The mad policeman fired on his passenger only t o find that there’s no gun in his hand. The mad Persian store owner fired on a little girl only to find he almost created a tragedy. Lara Elizabeth, the young girl in the cloak of love, is really an angel.The ending of the film is partly satisfactory and partly tragic, touching me deeply. The young girl survived while the black kid is found dead. Maybe real life is a tragicomedy just like the movie. All we can do is to believe in love and bravery, and believe that every person has a good nature.。

crash英文影评

一:Crash" is an ensemble film with several intersecting stories, all of them about people who can't quite seem to understand how things turned out the way they did or how they themselves turned out the way they did. Most of them find out, in the course of the movie, that they are capable of more -- or less -- than they thought they were.Paul Haggis, the screenwriter for Million Dollar Baby has co-written and directed a devastating movie about people who are very much like us, with one important difference. It's as though the drinking water in Los Angeles has been spiked with some mild de-inhibitor that makes people say what they are thinking. In this film, everyone says the most horrifyingly virulent things to everyone else: family members, people in business, employees, and strangers, reflecting a range of prejudice on the basis of class, gender, and, above all, race.These comments are sometimes made angrily, sometimes carelessly or thoughtlessly, but often, and more unsettlingly, matter-of-factly. As vicious as the insults are, the part that hurts the most is that people don't care enough, don't pay attention closely enough, to know the people they are insulting. "When did Persians become Arab?" asks an Iranian, who cannot understand how people can hate him without taking the time to know who he is. A Hispanic woman explains to a man she is sleeping with that she is not Mexican. Her parents are from El Salvador and Puerto Rico. He tells her that it doesn't matter because they all leave cars on their lawns anyway.The movie is intricately constructed, going back and forth between the characters and back and forth in time. We get a glimpses of moments that create a mosaic in which we see the pattern before the characters do. The movie has big shocks but it also has small glimpses and moments of great subtlety. A black woman looks at her white boss while he talks to his wife on a cell phone and we can tell there is more to their relationship than we have seen. The daughter of immigrants we have only seen in one context shows up in another and we see that her professional life is very different from what we might have imagined, reminding us that racism may be inextricably intertwined with America, but so is opportunity.Like Altman's classic Short Cuts, and Anderson's Magnolia, Crash, by writer/director Paul Haggis weaves a tale of multiple characters through the web of streets we have come to know as Los Angeles. Unlike those other two films this one has a very specific theme to explore. From the opening line uttered by Don Cheadle we know this is to be a film about how people relate, and from the interchange that follows between Jennifer Esposito and Alexis Rhee (pretty sure she plays the Korean female driver who rear-ended her) how people relate tends to be ruled by first impressions or prejudice.Race is paramount in this film, and all our preconceptions of who people are get twisted and turned through the intricate plot. With each new additional character we find another assumption, another stereotype, and then watch as that preconception is obliterated as the character develops. It is a credit to the deftly written script, tight direction and exceptional acting talent that every one of these many characters is fully realized on screen without ever feeling one-dimensional.I would love to discuss some of the details of what happens to explain how well it is done, but part of the magic of this film is allowing yourself to be taken on this ride. Mind you, this isn't a ride of pleasure. The first half of this film is unrelentingly in its ferociousness. I could literally feel my rage at some of the characters forming to a fever pitch. The fear and hatred I was confronting wasn't just on the screen, but in the pit of my stomach. And in one absolutely brilliant moment I was literally sobbing at the expectation of horror unfolding, only to be cathartically released in a most unexpected way.Mr. Haggis was in attendance at the screening I saw and explained that the idea for this film came to him one night sometime after 9/11 at about 2a.m. when his own memories of a car- jacking experience from 10 years before wouldn't leave him alone. Clearly this film was his way of relieving those demons of memory, using the catharsis of his art to unleash them and in doing so has given to all viewers of cinema an opportunity to examine our own preconceptions about race relations and how we treat each other and think of ourselves. He mentioned in the discussion after-wards that he likes to make films that force people to confront difficult issues. Films that ask people to think after the film has ended and not just leave saying: "that was a nice film".This isn't a "nice" film, and I would expect that it will provoke many a discussion in the ensuing weeks when it opens nation-wide. It's a discussion long overdue for this country, and it took a Canadian to bring the issue to the fore in this brilliant, thought provoking film.三:Ensemble features can be daunting, yet some filmmakers embrace the challenge, and their results reward an audience. A lot of characters are woven into the tapestry of Crash, the feature directing debut of TV veteran Paul Haggis. (Haggis was also Oscar nominated for writing the screenplay of Million Dollar Baby.) The story unfolds in Los Angeles, where hostility is often a barrier to intimacy, and hatred and fear cloud judgment. Don Cheadle plays Graham Waters, a police detective investigating what may be a racially-motivated killing. Graham is having an affair with his Latina partner (Jennifer Esposito), whom he variously refers to as "a white woman" and "Mexican," neither of which is accurate. Matt Dillon is LAPD officer Jack Ryan, a 17 year veteran of the force whose actions often cross the line. When he fondles a woman (Thandie Newton) during a routine traffic stop, his partner (Ryan Phillippe) wants to sever their professional relationship. Meanwhile, the D.A., Rick Cameron (Brendan Fraser), and his wife, Jean (Sandra Bullock), become crime victims when their car is stolen by a pair of thieves (Chris "Ludicris" Bridges and Larenz Tate).The best ensemble films are the ones in which the characters are given an opportunity to breathe (Magnolia, Short Cuts, and Nashville come to mind). With Crash, 105 minutes is barely enough time to let the numerous participants begin to inhale. The movie runs for long enough to allow Haggis to present the story, but we're left wanting a little more - a few extra scenes and an added conversation or two (especially between Newton's character and her husband, played by Terrence Dashon Howard). But I suppose it's always best to leave an audience hungry, rather than feeling overstuffed.Crash's strength is that it deals intelligently with serious subjects. Racism is a hot-button issue,yet Haggis manages to approach it in a universal, reasonable manner. We don't feel like we're being preached to, nor does this seem like a sanctimonious "message movie." The film's numerous stories are tied together by a web of coincidence. Af first, there's a sense that so much contrivance invites criticism. However, on a second viewing, I was aware of the balance and symmetry in the way the characters' tales connect, sometimes only tangentially. Haggis has created a microcosmos, so it's only right for plot-lines to criss-cross.The director has assembled a large, accomplished cast that includes Matt Dillon, Don Cheadle, Sandra Bullock, Thandie Newton, and Ryan Phillippe. Amongst other things, this group virtually assures that the film will be seen. All are more than competent in their roles - with Cheadle, Dillon, and Newton being especially memorable - and each does his or her best to enhance the two-dimensionality of the characters as they are presented in the screenplay. The most powerful scene in Crash has Dillon and Newton confronting mistrust on the cusp of mortality.The principle subject matter is racism and its manifestations, and how it is often as much the result of social conditioning and anger as of hatred and intolerance. In addition to the usual white-on-black manifestation of discrimination, we are confronted with black-on-Latino, Latino-on-Asian, white-on-Middle Eastern, and other permutations. Wherever cultural differences exist, there is room for tension. However, by depicting bigoted characters as otherwise caring individuals, Crash asks us to consider the causes of racism as much as to examine its effects. In doing this, Crash sets itself apart, at least to a degree, from other, similar motion pictures. Although an expanded running time would have afforded us the opportunity to get to know the characters better, Crash is long enough to permit the film's themes to strike a responsive chord.四:Screenwriter Paul Haggis made such an impression with his treatment of F.X. Toole?s source material for director Clint Eastwood?s ?Million Dollar Baby?, the best film of 2004, that I was eager to see what he was cooking up next. Thankfully, he strikes gold again with his directorial debut Crash, which is not to be confused with the 1996 David Cronenberg movie of the same name. Where that film was about people who were turned on by car crashes, here Haggis takes a turn into the realm of human collision in the decaying world of Los Angeles through many connecting and disconnecting characters. It is a location where Robert Altman (Short Cuts) and Paul Thomas Anderson (Magnolia) once told their own stories about healing and redemption. We first happen upon an accident outside of the city, where a detective (Don Cheadle) and his partner (Jennifer Esposito) arrive on the action. The film then goes back about 48 hours to introduce us to several connecting characters, all of which have different racial backgrounds. We first happen upon a wealthy white couple (Brendan Fraser playing a district attorney and Sandra Bullock playing his wife) whose car is stolen by some merciless car thieves (Chris ?Ludacris? Bridges and Larenz Tate). This leads to Bullock?s character suffering a breakdown and fearing everything around her.We also meet a Persian man who is insistent to purchase a gun to protect his store, ignorant of the fact that a Mexican locksmith (Michael Pena) is telling him to replace his door. (?I replaced the lock, and it works, but your door does not.?) The locksmith, who looks like someone recently sprung from jail and was also suspected by Bullock?s character earlier on when her house locks were changed, is a loving family man who has moved on with his daughter after a violentshooting.Down the road, we also meet a black film director (Terence Howard) whose wife (Thandie Newton) is harassed and fondled by a seemingly dirty cop (Matt Dillon) while his nicer partner (Ryan Philippe) looks on. The director husband is enraged by this violence but refuses to do anything much to the anger of his wife, and Phillipe?s cop finally decides that he wants to get a new partner, or possibly a solo car job.I have only brushed the surface of the characters and their set-up, and it is up to each individual viewer to connect to the story and discover how all of these people bounce off one another and lead back to that opening in the city outskirts. The thrill of watching Crash is not just the telling aspects of racism in our society, and it is there, but also to instinctive fear and how that can drive us to silent anger and insecurity. The film somewhat reminded me of Lawrence Kasdan?s great 1991 film Grand Canyon where several characters were at their wits end by a changing society, and here Mr. Haggis tells a story of select kinds of people who are battling to find themselves in a world that is tearing them apart.Funny, isn?t it, how you can live in a town or large city and yet somehow you can feel disconnected with those around you. With that said, everyone has a story and everyone is connected, and the pleasure of a film like Crash, a wonderful story, beautifully performed and written, is that there is hope in this world, and there can be a future where all is redeemed and all is right. We crash into each other for a reason.五:OK, so the cleansing shower at the end of "Crash" features snow instead of frogs, but there are still too many similarities between this film and "Magnolia" for comfort.Like "Magnolia," this ensemble drama features multiple intersecting story lines that seek to expose the lack of intimacy and warmth between residents of Los Angeles. There's even a showy supporting turn by a big-name star (in this case, Sandra Bullock instead of Tom Cruise).On the plus side, "Crash" is a much shorter film —by nearly an hour. But it doesn't have nearly the lingering emotional punch of "Magnolia." Although this one does score some points for confronting racial prejudice head-on (including within the LAPD). It's just unfortunate that it's been packaged in such already familiar material.Among the Angelenos examined in "Crash" is Graham (Don Cheadle, who also produced), a police detective dealing with a drug-addled mother who wants him to make things right with his younger brother. Then there's Hanson (Ryan Phillippe), a young LAPD officer who sees the ugly side of his patrol partner (Matt Dillon) when they pull over a black filmmaker (Terrence Howard) and his wife (Thandie Newton).Meanwhile, a pair of would-be carjackers (Chris "Ludacris" Bridges and Larenz Tate) make the mistake of stealing the vehicle of the local D.A. (Brendan Fraser) and his high-strung wife (Bullock). And in the film's least successful story, there is a confrontation between an Arab-American convenience-store owner (Shaun Toub) and a Hispanic locksmith (Michael Pena), which adds an unnecessary feel-good element to a movie that doesn't really need one.Co-screenwriter Paul Haggis does fill out his directorial debut with some strong performances, though. Cheadle is as intense as usual, while both Dillon and Howard add some needed shadingsto their respective characters.Unfortunately, Bullock's much-ballyhooed performance verges on cartoonish, and worse, she's paired with Fraser, who couldn't be more inanimate if he was cast as a brick wall.。

crash观后感

crash观后感

Crash观后感引言《Crash》是一部由保罗·哈吉斯执导的电影,于2004年上映。

该片以多线索的方式展现了洛杉矶不同人群之间错综复杂的关系,通过讲述种族、阶级和文化冲突的故事,揭示了现代社会中存在的偏见、歧视和暴力等问题。

观看《Crash》后,我深受触动,对片中所表达的思想和情感产生了一系列的感悟。

种族关系的脆弱性电影中,不同人物之间的触碰和冲突显现了种族关系的脆弱性。

无论是黑人、白人、拉丁裔还是亚裔,每个人都有自己的价值观和经历,容易因为种族歧视而产生矛盾和暴力行为。

例如,警察汤姆·汉森(饰)和同事瑞安·菲利普斯(饰)之间存在着一种暗黑的争斗和误解,暴力行为使他们的关系更加恶化。

整个电影中充斥着各种各样的种族冲突,这让我深刻认识到我们生活的社会还存在着严重的种族偏见和不公平。

文化冲突的影响电影中还揭示了不同文化之间的冲突和影响。

人们的文化背景和信仰系统可能带来误解和融合的难题。

例如,伊兰德(饰)是一名波斯裔的店主,他的店铺遭到了一名白人锁车恶作剧者的袭击。

伊兰德经营着许多极端的恶意行为,但在影片的结尾,他却懂得了宽容和原谅,这样的转变以及他对白人女性琳恩表示友好的姿态,展示了文化冲突中可能实现的和解和共赢。

邻里关系的脆弱性除了种族和文化关系,电影中还展示了邻里关系的脆弱性以及随之而来的暴力和矛盾。

瑞安(饰)和他的妻子珍(饰)与邻居卡梅隆(饰)和克里斯蒂娜(饰)之间的冲突是一个典型的例子。

开始时,他们由于误解和偏见而发生了冲突,但最后发现他们之间的对话和理解是解决问题的关键。

这段情节让我深思邻里关系的重要性和建立相互尊重和包容的紧密联系。

个人觉醒和自省观看《Crash》让我深思自己的想法和行为对社会问题所产生的影响。

电影中的许多场景让我反思我自己的偏见和歧视,并意识到它们是如何助长和维持不公正的社会结构的。

我也意识到自己在与他人进行交流时所带来的影响,无论是积极的还是消极的。

THE DIGNITY OF THE BLACKSIN “CRASH”After watch the film—crash, I see discrimination, cultural conflicts, the blood, distrust, misunderstand and so on .However,the dignity of the individual and the racial is the most important aspects in the film.Look back to the history, during that time, the slaver captured the blacks from Africa and forced them to work in the plantations which are located in the south of America. Some black slaves died of diseases and lacked food in the halfway to Atlantic. Some were subject and trade. Meanwhile, they were beaten cruelty. What was worse, owing to overworking , lots of the slavers directly died. The slave trade lasted for several centuries from 15th century . The blcks slaves were just looked as a kind of tool by plantation owners without dignity .At the begining of the film ,it shows between different race conflict. For example,” I n L.A,Nobody touches you.”, ” We are always behind this metal and glass ”,” She got colder as soon as she saw us and her reation is blind fear.”,” D ress like gangbangers”and so on . From two black youth's dialog to see they think the dignity life is luxury living in white pepole world . The public prosecutor wife saw the two black young men by the despised sight that caused their dignity to suffer injury . So they wanted to obtain the dignity by snatching public prosecutor's vehicle . As a result , it had caused the public prosecutor wife to loathe the black .The respect is most people expected to own . Each people should remember, the dignity is not others give, but to win through your own diligence . Therefore, everyone should have the same dignity, but that depends on our own gain. The police shamed the director's wife who wanted to built her husband dignity for saving his own face . His husband kept silent at that point. .However , he saved his face, he lost his dignity. Not long ago, in a car accident, they met again. The black wife would rather die than accept the white police Ryan’ help. The resistance showed her fight for the dignity . Eventually, the police saved the black woman safely in the crisis. From the black woman , we can see that she gained her dignity by struggling and won the respect, the white police to the black . There was a lens that two black youth men pillaged a shuttle bus and was surprised to find that was a black driver. With the white police Hanson help, the director returned to his car, and said to them , “you embarrass me ,you embarrass youself”. If you look down youself, others will despise you. After that , the black bludger also struggled for the dignity.He snatched one car fully laden with the trading East Asian person's vehicle . When he saw the scene , he thought his ancestor had traded like this . Finally, he led them to the security area, and gave them his all money to buy food for themselves. From this event, he determined to strive for the atonement and live with dignity life. From then, he might not only win respect , but also realize the dignity true value.From ancient times till now, for dignity, but the unyielding person is everywhere, Rousseau “Every man should maintain their dignity”. Zhu Ziqing for own dignity, but did not eat the American relief food..The dignity is not actually difficult to strive for, was only some people have not dared in the heart to strive for, to think that oneself was humble, did not match obtains these things. Every body is born equal, this is known very well on the words by the people, but actually not by most people true understanding. We should struggle for our dignity and the national dignity. But struggle does not mean the violence and the war.Actually, each people are the angel and the devil synthesis, the wind and cloud opportune moment, the circumstances reverse, good and evil samsara. Sometimes, does evil the reason which the human no doubt has it to be worth sympathizing, but this actually cannot become him for the wicked excuse, because, in society's people look resemble the isolation, regulations each other relation, even if a spot small evil intention has the possibility to look like the snowball equally more to roll is bigger, not can only injury and the innocent person, even also the final retribution to own body on. Friendly and wicked is the error in thought merely, actually will create the entirely different result . Where has the oppression, where has the revolt. In modern society , there is still racial discrimination in America . Blacks still suffer quite unfairly , so that the African—AmericanCivil Rights Movement broke out .I think that it passes through the long time wearing , the racial discrimination and the cultural conflict question will melt gradually. Everybody will live with the dignity, the world will present peace to have the good aspect . Like a song sings, we are the whole family, the whole family who the intimate falls in love. I can’t wait to welcome this day in the near future!。
