Reading Beowulf before watching the movie allowed for an open‚ personal interpretation of what the author wanted us to create in our minds. We created our own thoughts about the setting‚ characters‚ and imagery that the author had envisioned and put into the book.

Whom do I most relate to in Crash? The question has the same prejudice as the movie.
