I watched Crash....again!

It's such a great movie I thought, and if you havn't seen it, you probaby should check it out

(If you havnt seen it, this is a bit of a spoiler)
But the scene that gets me everytime is where the Iranian?(middle eastern) old man pulls the gun on the locksmith and shoots, just as the daughter jumps in the way. Even knowing it's a happy ending, I dont even bother to stop myself from having a bit of a boo-hoo at that one...and again when the old man tells his own daughter he's found his angel. Brilliant

First - thoughts on that one; and later on let's share our fav. movie scenes
Completely agree. Saw that film at the cinema before all the oscar comotion (I like beating the bandwaggon ). I am someone who never cries in films, but I have to admit that when that scene happens I feel myself welling up (even at fifth or sixth viewing). But of coarse the genius of that scene doesn't come from that scene in itself, but the setup scene earlier in the film when the locksmith is trying to help his daughter sleep. Without that I'm not sure the scene would be so powerful.
