“Crash,” drama, November 17, 1997 (1996), video. Very weird, David Cronenberg film based on JG Ballard novel of the same name about sexual fetisihization of cars and car crashes. Well acted with Holly Hunter, James Spader, Elias Kotae, but very flat in style and presentation. Explicitly sexual, yet strangely detached and unerotic. Sex, death, and car crashes. Not a lot of fun to watch and too flat to be interesting.
