crash -- have you all seen it?  (i lose track, all the way over here, of when things come out on your side, when there's not a simultaneous worldwide release.)

if you haven't, and you still can, go now.  this thing's (eta: directed, by the way, by paul haggis, whom many of us have heard of, haven't we [g]) going to win awards, man.  i could even go out on a limb and say Ludacris gets nominated for best supporting actor.

Yeah, they certainly could have made better use of clipboards. I think, though, that the guy with the broken door didn't want to understand: you know how hard those Mexicans can be to understand. I see that all the time. I don't remember the cop who didn't know how to talk to the woman, but the obnoxiousness of the assumption that we should understand some people and not others (hence the selective subtitles) is just, yeah, a bit beyond questionable for a movie that's supposed to be critical.
