Title: Nothing to Write Home About
Review: This is another one of those "it deserves an academy award because of the subject or the actor". It does not depend on the quality of the content or the acting. Eastwood got it for Unforgiven because he had been around Hollywood a 100 years and was well liked. Halle Berry got it for Monsterball, a monster flop, and many critics stated it had a lot to do with her race/sex not performance. Crash is another such film. It addresses the politically correct issue of rascism and manages to get most of the key races into the movie Asian, Hispanic, Black, White, etc.. A sure winner, regardless of the quality of content. I'd say you'd have to go way out on a limb to believe that racial interrelations exist as those depicted in this movie but I can't imagine a limb that long.
