Crash!

When I was writing, I considered whether to be a headliner and titled this article "A Express Car Named Desire", so as to attract attention and save my precarious click-through rate. But in the end it was decided to leave only one, CRASH, short and powerful, like the impact it brought.

Wade in muddy water too long, always need some lighthouse to guide the course. I want to write this to someone for encouragement. I don't know if I have found some comfort in my recent switch to horror. Yes, we've all been complaining this year that there aren't any good films, so much so that I never dare to ask you what the top five are on this year's desert island movie list. This year, only old films comforted me, and I finally understood that those who are ranked (no matter what kind of name) and have been recited (even if they were forced to read by Wen Qingyiqing pretending to be) are actually All are listed on a single list, that is your life movie list, you are lucky enough to watch hundreds of thousands, and others only have a few sloppy films, interspersed in their life when they are not rich or ashamed of it, it is over. It's over. So I wondered if I had watched too much before graduation, or had I been numb, and only those films that crossed the line and fell to the bottom can spark a little spark in my eyes.

Sex and Car Accidents, it's that simple, simple film that won an award in Garna. Running on the highway, having sex in the back seat, reenacting the scene of the car accident, colliding with each other... All attempts to escape the shadow of the car accident are futile, all attempts to break the social norms are futile, all attempts to gain new freedom are futile, being highly The product of the development of technology and the extrusion of industrial society, in the end only sex remains, and only in sex can the sense of existence be found.

I can't help but think of one afternoon we were so disgusted by Cronenberg's "Nude Lunch" that we had to run away, and now we can only watch the "perverted" film for comfort. Hehe, just a smile.

    I searched Pornhub, and basically every sex scene has a separate video, and the score is quite high. It can be said that this movie is both Porn and Anti-porn. At first, the eroticism was high, but it turned into a pale void in the end. It's a bit like "Blue Velvet", except that the Lynch-style protagonist can go back to daily life, and James can't go back. The first 50 minutes of the film can be called perfect.

    As soon as the new 4K restoration version comes, I can't wait to re-brush it! After abstracting sex car shocks and crashes, the film begins to become more advanced. What is even more powerful is Cronenberg's way of shooting this deformed world, which is mysterious and detached.

Crash quotes

  • Vaughan: I've always wanted to drive a crashed car.

    James Ballard: You could get your wish at any moment.

    Vaughan: No, I mean a crashed car with a history. Camus' Facel Vega, Nathaniel West's station wagon, Grace Kelly's Rover 3500. Just fix it enough to get it rolling. Don't clean it, don't touch anything else.

  • James Ballard: Do you see Kennedy's assassination as a special kind of car crash?

    Vaughan: The case could be made.
