Movies like <em>Crash</em> drive me bonkers. I just don't feel like they're representative of real life.

"ring the doorbells of strangers and ask them if they would take their air conditioner out of their window for a night in the middle of July" On a different note, <i>Paris</i> was a good film but I found it frustrating that nothing held together at the story level, but more at the conceptual level. If <i>New York</i> ties a few of the stories together, that will better serve my penchant for connection and closure. :) I loved this…
