"Crash" is a movie that can change people's worldview.

I forgot when I watched it for the first time, I didn't make much impression.
When I was younger, there was an element of vanity in watching movies and reading books.
Because of this vanity, I missed a lot of good movies that I "seen" but didn't understand, such as Crash.

It gives the viewer a perspective overlooking all beings.

Each character is in an inextricable chain of cause and effect.
Meet at different nodes, collide, and then cause and effect each other.

There are no good people and no bad people.
There is only one person who does a good thing or a bad thing in a certain situation.

Although this sentence seems like a very simple chicken soup for the soul, it is indeed the biggest impact of this film on me.

Choose to do good or bad.
Based on his character, educational background, interests, and the elusive human nature of evil and good.

Simple good and bad values ​​are a lazy shortcut for adults to teach children to understand the laws of the world as soon as possible.
But when you grow up, you shouldn't be so ignorant.

The world is very complicated, and the complexity is in the endless chain of cause and effect. Between strangers, it is possible that you have me and I have you. Crash.
God's role, perhaps, is only a hand that pushes thoughts in choosing between good and evil in a given situation.

Watching such films can be used to self-police, to be wary of preconceived judgments and simplistic laziness labels.
Every individual is poor.
Being swayed in an involuntary chain of cause and effect, one percent of freedom is in control.

So, when we meet, we have to be kind to each other.
Try not to set up obstacles for others in your own part.

    The structure of the multi-linear narrative of the plot is very beautiful, each independent story and even point of view are spread independently, and each ring is successfully closed at its own rhythm and time point, and reflects each other. The perspective is constantly shifting between subjective and objective, involving the audience’s attention and the constant expansion of conflicts. Tragedies and comedies move from the beginning to destiny step by step, as the powerlessness and tragedy that the audience feels in this step forward The feeling is very heavy.
