Braveheart

What do you now about Scotland?

Scotland is the country of the part of the United Kingdom.Occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain, it shares a border with England to the south and is bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, and the North Channel and Irish Sea to the southwest. In addition to the mainland, Scotland is made up of more than 790 island including the Northern Isles  and the Hebrides.

Edinburgh, the country's capital and second largest city, is one of Europe's largest financial centers. Edinburgh was the hub of the Scottish Enlightenment of the 18th century, which transformed Scotland into one of the commercial, intellectual and industrial powerhouses of Europe. Glasgow, Scotland's largest city,was once one of the world's leading industrial cities and now lies at the center of the Greater Glasgow conurbation. Scottish waters consist of a large sector of the North Atlantic and the North Sea, containing the largest oil reserves in the European Union. This has given. Aberdeen, the third largest city in Scotland, the title of Europe's oil capital.

The Kingdom of Scotland emerged as an independent sovereign state in the Early Middle Ages and continued to exist until 1707, although it had been in a personal union with the kingdoms of England and Ireland since James VI of Scotland succeeded to the English and Irish thrones in 1603. On 1 May 1707, Scotland entered into an incorporating political union with England to create the united Kingdom of Great Britain. This union resulted from the Treaty of Union agreed in 1706 and enacted by the twin Acts of Union passed by the Parliaments of both countries, despite popular opposition and anti-union riots in Edinburgh, Glasgow and elsewhere.

STEP 1: THE TITLE: CRASH

The introductory monologue pretty much summarizes most of what happens in this movie.  People in L:A: move back and forth in their cars, without any kind of human contact.  They need to collide in order to make that necessary human contact everybody needs.

Why do you thing the title is crash?

Crash is a provocative treatise on racism woven together with a series of overlapping threads. Talk about the different thinks, and everything have a double meaning. At the final of the film you see that the topics are related and finally all do a CRASH.

 into

 you.

In L.A., nobody touches you.  We're always behind this metal and glass.

I think we miss that touch so much that we crash into each other just so that we can feel

 something.”
