Through metal and glass

The plot of the entire movie is like the title, full of contradictions and ups and downs, with multiple clues advancing side by side, with a strong sense of rhythm.
I never blinked when watching ghost movies, but he grabbed my heart! Many accidents happen, but they are reasonable and make people feel that their fate is unpredictable. The most valuable thing is that the first half of the film meticulously portrays the transparent but strong diaphragm that exists between the races, while the second half shines out the brilliance of human nature, which is deeply moving.
The photography and music of the film are also very good, it is indeed a rare good film!

Crash quotes

  • Flanagan: Actually, we were thinking of you until we saw that. It's your brothers file. Twenty something years old and already three felonys. Three Strikes Law, the kid's going away for life for stealing a car. Christ, that's a shitty law. There's a warrant in there. But still, he had every opportunity you had. Fucking black people, huh?

    Graham: So, uh... all I need to do to make this disappear is to frame a potentially innocent man.

    Flanagan: What are you? The fucking Defender of All Things White? We're talking about a white that shot three black men and you're arguing with me, that maybe we're not being "fair" to him? You know, what? Maybe you're right. Maybe you're right. Maybe Lewis did provoke this. Maybe he got exactly what was coming to him. Or, maybe, stoned or not, being a black man in the valley was enough to get him killed. There was no one there to see who shot first, so there is no way way to know. Which means, we could get this wrong. Maybe that's what happened with your brother. Maybe we got it wrong. Maybe Lewis isn't the only one who deserves the benefit of the doubt. You're the one closest to all this. You need to tell us. What does your gut tell you?

  • Flanagan: The D.A's squad loses its lead investigator next month. Rick is quite adamant that his replacement be a person of color. It's a high profile position, and he wants to send the right message to the community.

    Graham: And the right message is look at this Black Boy I bought?
