A Good Cop

A Good Cop

Crash movie was released in 2004 and directed by Paul Haggis who was interested in playwriting as he was young. It is about racial and gender problems happening in Los Angeles. It describes several characters of different kind of people- black and white people, from a person having a high position such as lawyer to a person having lower position as a locksmith in this society, and these characters together are occurred during around two days. Going through this movie, I think a racist white cop Ryan, who takes cake of his father who seems to get serious sickness at home, is a hero even he did an action which insulted a black beautiful woman named Christine in front of her husband Cameron and his partner Hansen on the traffic.

In the beginning, when Ryan appears at first time, I think he is a good son. His family seems to have two people- him and his father. While he is working as going on patrol, he is always concerned about his father disease because no one cares for his father except him. He stops by a telephone public to call an insurance assistance to help his father because his father has gotten pain and lack of sleep a few days before. He is angry because he may think this insurance representative doesn't help his father have a better treatment. At home, he can't get a good sleep because of his father disease. He takes an appointment to see the insurance representative because he wants to know about situation of his father disease.
