A friend of mine fretted about watching Crash because he heard that it had an oversimplified take on racism. Some of the stories were a little too square, but I thought some of them had some nice nuance. I don’t know that real people talk about race as much as these movie characters do, but I was willing to let them be explicit for efficiencies sake.  The thing that makes the movie work for me is that I found many of the stories to be compelling narratives.
