gong-chop staggered

I haven't read other movie reviews yet, so I'll write my own feelings here.
The photographer said that only by crashing the car would he seem to be able to rescue himself from the repressed thoughts of a dull life. I think maybe the movie is equating sex (maybe it can't be called sex, but for now) and crashing. Alternate releases of sexual and crashing passions result in a spiritual and physical union, which of course may also be the result of separation.
The music has always been monotonous, as if it was just telling the story. But the content of the story is startling. The life of modern people has long lacked due passion, and machinery runs every day. When the photographer was holding a telescope like a potted plant on the balcony, the road was full of traffic, but there was no collision. The sex and car inside have become a comprehensive medium, releasing the depression of life.
A cart is a bed with four wheels. In the life of the machinery that keeps running, even love begins to become monotonous. People's psychology has begun to twist. Constantly changing social roles, the ultimate goal is still to have a reassuring spiritual home.
The tattoo on the body has also become a sign, a sign of lack of faith. We've all become part of a gigantic machine in what seems like a dignified but monotonous job on the fast-moving highway.

    Cronenberg's icy, blurry, heterochromatic work won a special prize at Cannes. Linking car accidents with sexual pleasure, fetishes, madness, self-destructive impulses and decadent indulgences are intertwined, and the relationship between people and technology in postmodern society is detached, like an overly long pornographic film. The scene of kissing the car logo tattoo is just like a variation on the theme of body transformation and human-machine integration that Lao Ke has always been passionate about. At the end, the lawn under the car makes love quite meaningful. (9.0/10)

    David Cronenberg's most controversial work. He used "Crash" to create a new way of playing erotic movies. The crash that was originally an accident became a source of sexual desire, and for the pleasure of it, he was willing to risk his life. Cronenberg's extreme idea isn't a boring erotic gimmick, he's trying to spell out in the absurdity of film noir and lustful purple tones of man's nature of taking pleasure in destruction.

Crash quotes

  • James Ballard: After being bombarded endlessly by road safety propaganda, almost a relief to have found myself in an actual accident.

  • Colin Seagrave: I want really big tits, out to here, so the audience can see 'em get all cut up and crushed on the dashboard.
