Episode 037: This Film is One Giant Racist and Sexist Fest! Crash (2004) with Karenna Malavanti
Manage episode 329440712 series 3354029
Join Alex and guest host Dr. Karenna Malavanti in a discussion of the various psychological concepts in the wildly controversial film, Crash (2004)! It's controversial because even writer-director Paul Haggis doesn't think it should have won Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Oh, and the fact that each scene or connected vignette features truly awful human beings! But we wade into the controversy and discuss racism, sexism, prejudice, and stereotypes... so *crash* into us!
