Crash (2005)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

One may be about gay cowboys eating pudding, but at least Ang Lee has talent. "Capote" still kicked both their asses.
Never saw, heard, of Capote, still in theaters?
Depending on how your cinemas work, someone might still've it. Shouldn't take too long for them to press it out on DVD considering the turnaround time "Walk the Line" got.

It's still playing in some places, but never got promoted heavily. Low budget (7mil), decent return (28mil worldwide so far).

playing in my town, but only one showing per night.

Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Brendan Fraser, & Matt Dillion on a $7 million budget?

That makes more sense.

I finally saw this over the past two days.

Pacing: started decently, got slow... got slower... OK, I've had enough of "dramatic music with slow pan across people's faces"

Dialogue: Half-crap

Acting: Most impressive part of the movie. B Fraser having very few lines helped.

Overall: Decent. Needed more nuance to be relevant to reality, imho, but entertainingish enough. 6/10
