Crash

‘BOOM!’ It was when it finally occurred to certain people that doing bad deeds would only end up leaving you in a bad situation, a.k.a. karma. When it took one accident to bring people together, and bring people to show their sensitive side to certain situations was when it hit me. I want to use the cop for instance. He was rude to the lady on the phone because he assumed she was African American, and he thought it was okay because he had the wrong idea of African Americans. He pulled over a car and gave the couple a hard time mostly because they were of a different ethnicity. But it took one car accident, where the woman he pulled over from before was stuck in a flaming car, to show his sensitive side and it took that accident to make him realize what he did before was wrong. He did everything and anything in his power to save this woman and to redeem himself. This movie showed how people take out their anger on other people, and think they have it worse than someone else when really everyone has a certain type of problem. If they had just taken a second to take a breather and think about what they are about to say or the action they are about to take on, the world would be a better place. Honestly, think about it, if I’m having a bad day and instead of me blaming it on someone else I just think about it and say to myself, ‘hey, times are tough but you’ll get through this’ it’s a way of self-healing and worldly healing. Even though this movie wasn't exactly about the Holocaust, it taught us not to be so ignorant about other people and to respect everybody just the way one would want to be respected back.
