Crash 1996 - Archiveorg __full__

Based on J.G. Ballard's infamous 1973 novel, Crash tells the story of James Ballard (James Spader), a film producer, and his wife Catherine (Deborah Kara Unger), who share a disconnected and sexually experimental marriage. Their arousal is heightened by the detailed recounting of their daily infidelities.

Ballard and his wife, Catherine, find that their distant relationship is strangely revitalized by this dangerous obsession. The film explores the "death of affect" in modern life, where characters can only feel emotion or sexual connection through the cold, violent fusion of human flesh and automotive technology.
