Cronenberg has a new movie playing at Cannes called <em>Crimes of the Future<\/em>, and it seems we can\u2019t go a day without someone lamenting the presence of sex scenes in films and television. So yeah, Cronenberg\u2019s 1996 masterpiece <strong><em>Crash<\/em><\/strong> seems like a good pick for this week\u2019s Commentary column.<\/p>\n<p>Keep reading to see what I heard on David Cronenberg\u2019s <em>Crash<\/em> commentary via the Criterion Collection.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"graf graf--h3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Crash_1996\"><\/span>Crash (1996)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\">Commentator: David Cronenberg (director, writer)<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p\"><strong>1.<\/strong> These opening credits were not present when the film debuted at the Cannes Film Festival in 1996, \u201cbecause the credits weren\u2019t ready.\u201d The film opened in France under similar circumstances, and the credits were completed shortly thereafter by a small Toronto company. \u201cIt was really their first shot at doing elaborate head credits, and it took them a long time, but they did a really fantastic job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.<\/strong> The company had issues creating the \u201cdented\u201d look of some of the metallic letters. The crossbar in the A, for example, would pull out when they <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lied a dent \u201cas if it was actual metal tubing,\u201d and they couldn\u2019t figure out why. The team eventually spoke with a plumber \u2014 again, this is regarding digitally created text on the screen \u2014 who advised them that the cross piece has to be extended into the sidearms of the A to allow for the pull of the dent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.<\/strong> The opening scene features a woman pressing her naked breast to the metal wing of a small plane before being diddled from behind, but\u201dthe most difficult part of this scene was actually the choreography of the airplanes, figuring out how they should be placed and how much they should overlap each other so the opening dolly crane shot would work.\u201d Yup, this is definitely Cronenberg\u2019s <em>Crash<\/em> commentary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.<\/strong> This was <strong>Deborah Kara Unger<\/strong>\u2018s first lead role (but her seventh feature), \u201cand she caused quite a stir.\u201d Cronenberg and his team found her while searching for a Canadian actor for the role.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.<\/strong> \u201cAnd this is a very good introduction of <strong>James Spader<\/strong> I think,\u201d he says as we see Spader\u2019s face rise up from <strong>Alice Poon<\/strong>\u2018s bare behind. \u201cProbably one of the more interesting introductions of a major character in a recent film.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>6.<\/strong> The Ballard\u2019s apartment balcony is real when facing outward toward the city but a set when facing inward toward their living room. Matching the light from natural to artificial isn\u2019t easy, but cinematographer \u201c<strong>Peter Suschitzky<\/strong> did his usual brilliant job of making them seamless.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>7.<\/strong> They filmed on roads and highways in Toronto that aren\u2019t typically used as it\u2019s a big deal to shut them down, but the city was thrilled that the film was actually set there instead of it pretending to be an American city. \u201cWe got a special, enthusiastic hand from the roads department.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>8.<\/strong> The opening car crash was accomplished with one of the cars being driven via remote control and a dummy behind the wheel, and the other one was being pulled by a cable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9.<\/strong> Hospital beds are apparently difficult to find and\/or expensive to rent, so they filmed in a real hospital.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10.<\/strong> \u201cDespite the fact that this movie caused a huge furor in just about every country it played in, I still maintain that I was very restrained in making it.\u201d He adds that even the sexuality is fairly restrained leading him to believe that it was \u201cpushing some buttons that were very deeply embedded and rarely pushed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>11.<\/strong> The hospital hallway scene was shot on their first day of filming, and it was a rarity in that Cronenberg had not yet visited the location in person. The place was not what he was expecting, and he \u201chad a rough couple of days working in this place trying to make it work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>12.<\/strong> \u201cThere was much discussion about what Deborah Unger would be holding onto in this scene,\u201d he says during the sequence where Catherine (Unger) gives James (Spader) a handjob beneath the blanket. They ended up with \u201ca very lifelike dildo that James Spader wanted to wear, which he did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>13.<\/strong> \u201cA lot of people\u2019s driving habits changed after they made this film,\u201d he says, adding that <strong>Holly Hunter<\/strong> got rid of her pickup truck \u2014 she only owned pickups to that point \u2014 and bought a BMW 850 instead after seeing crash test footage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>14.<\/strong> He points out the hood ornament on Ballard\u2019s car and adds that some viewers don\u2019t notice the ornament\u2019s imprint on the dead man\u2019s hand at 7:54. \u201cIt\u2019s really the beginning of a whole structure of internal mythology within the film of the imprinting on the human body bey metallic objects and parts of vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>15.<\/strong> Cronenberg was contacted by Hunter\u2019s agent before he had even sent the script out stating that she very much wanted to play this character. \u201cThat was very exciting news, because of course, anticipating going out to actors with this movie I was worried that once again I would be rejected as I had been on many of my other movies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>16.<\/strong> Spader didn\u2019t need convincing either, although he was curious about the rest of the cast saying \u201cafter all, I get to fuck everybody in this movie don\u2019t I.\u201d Cronenberg knew he had his lead right then.<\/p>\n<p><strong>17.<\/strong> \u201cSomeone once wrote somewhere that \u2018a series of sex scenes is not a plot,\u2019 and my answer was well why not why can\u2019t it be?\u201d He points to the first sexual contact between James and Helen (Hunter) as the perfect example. The pair connect physically after literally crashing into each other, and that propels James to seek the same orgasmic connection with his wife \u2014 but it doesn\u2019t work because she hasn\u2019t had \u201cher crash\u201d yet. \u201cSo there, you have to notice what\u2019s happening in that scene and not just sort of turn off and watch it as a titillating scene and that\u2019s it. It has meaning in this movie whether someone has an orgasm or doesn\u2019t is extremely significant and has implications and consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>18.<\/strong> The Porsche 550 Spyder in the film is actually a replica made of fiberglass \u2014 the real car is aluminum and would have cost the production roughly $2 million of their $9 million budget \u2014 called a Beck Speedster.<\/p>\n<p><strong>19.<\/strong> Cronenberg accidentally cameos in the darkness at 30:25 just after the James Dean crash recreation. His voice cameos at 1:30:20 as the car lot attendant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>20.<\/strong> He says a film like this requires \u201cactors who are unafraid, or are not afraid, at least, to be afraid.\u201d His entire cast approached it that way with the understanding that \u201cthe fear was the good part.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>21.<\/strong> The character of Gabrielle (<strong>Rosanna Arquette<\/strong>) was the center of a big controversy in the UK leading to the film\u2019s opening being delayed for over a year. A British journalist apparently kicked off a furor by criticizing a scene featuring \u201csex with cripples,\u201d but it backfired on him as the nation\u2019s disabled population struck back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>22.<\/strong> The shot at 40:55 is taken directly out the window of the film\u2019s production offices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>23.<\/strong> \u201cThere are probably no more photographed things in movies than sex and cars,\u201d he says as explanation for why it was so difficult deciding where to put the camera during driving scenes and sex scenes. \u201cYou know that you\u2019re not gonna come up with a way of looking at it that\u2019s totally unique in one shot that\u2019s never been done before by anyone, so it\u2019s a matter of accumulation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>24.<\/strong> The sex scene at 44:00 between James and Catherine had to be trimmed for release in Ireland, but it wasn\u2019t the imagery \u2014 it was the dialogue \u2014 \u201cand I still haven\u2019t at this moment decided whether to let the movie play there without this scene or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>25.<\/strong> Cronenberg sets up monitors for the actors during sex scenes so they can see what the camera sees and make adjustments if they feel it\u2019s necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>26.<\/strong> The shot at 50:55 is among his favorites in the film.<\/p>\n<p><strong>27.<\/strong> They had six Lincoln Continentals for the film. A couple were for crashes, and a couple were modified to allow for camera equipment and shot setups.<\/p>\n<p><strong>28.<\/strong> The scene featuring James driving Vaughn\u2019s (<strong>Elias Koteas<\/strong>) car while the man gets busy with a woman in the back seat might seem \u201cintimate,\u201d but they were driving on real roads and had police escorts. People driving the opposite direction weren\u2019t quite sure what the hell was happening.<\/p>\n<p><strong>29.<\/strong> Cronenberg and Koteas almost worked together on <em>Naked Lunch<\/em> (1991), but it just didn\u2019t pan out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>30.<\/strong> The dead dog in the car crash was a stuffed pup. \u201cWe didn\u2019t kill it for the movie, although I was tempted to put a little note at the end saying that we had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>31.<\/strong> People have commented that Cronenberg tends to try and adapt books that are \u201cimpossible\u201d to make into movies, but \u201cI think it\u2019s impossible to translate any book into a movie.\u201d He adds that \u201cit\u2019s kind of a transmutation, a recreation or reinvention, and gives the illusion of being the book if it works, but no direct translation is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>32.<\/strong> One of the struggles he faced in early attempts to get the film made was the response that \u201cit was a big mistake to have the characters be so strange right from the beginning of the movie.\u201d He was told more than once to Hollywood it up some meaning to structure it with a young, traditional couple whose normal life is interrupted by an accident and the arrival of a \u201ccrazy\u201d guy who becomes a sexually destructive element \u201cbut finally they shoot Vaughn at the end and live happily ever after.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>33.<\/strong> \u201cMaybe sexual organs are not sexual organs anymore, and maybe there are other ways to have sex,\u201d he says after James fucks Gabrielle\u2019s leg scar. This is the scene that upset some critics and viewers in the UK but that also found support.<\/p>\n<p><strong>34.<\/strong> The sex scene between James and Vaughan is \u201cthe scene that more people walk out of than any other scene in the movie.\u201d He received criticism both from straight guys saying it\u2019s too much and gay activists saying it\u2019s not enough, and \u201cI ignore all of this.\u201d Instead, he points out that this coupling features the first real kiss between characters in the movie \u201cand showing Elias Koteas\u2019 bare butt would not have made this scene more intense or better.\u201d He resists the charge that he backed away from the book\u2019s homosexuality and adds, \u201cI even go further to annoy people and say that I don\u2019t think it\u2019s homosexual, by this time everybody in the movie is moving beyond sexuality at all to some other place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>35.<\/strong> \u201cI wanted the dynamics of this film to be very much anti-Hollywood action movie,\u201d he says, adding that he had to calm his stunt drivers down by limiting what we would actually see when it came to the impact and destruction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>36.<\/strong> They re-shot Spader\u2019s close-ups during the end \u201cchase,\u201d as he had initially performed it as written in Cronenberg\u2019s screenplay \u2014 \u201che was kind of predatory and vicious.\u201d They came to realize, though, that it was the wrong approach and should instead be \u201cplayful, excited, and exuberant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>37.<\/strong> \u201cIt\u2019s critical that you listen to what he says, his last words in the movie, and understand what that means.\u201d He\u2019s not wrong \u2014 both because the final line remains among the absolute best in a film, and because too many viewers find it too easy to tune out and let their attention fade while watching a movie.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"graf graf--h3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_in_Context-Free_Commentary\"><\/span>Best in Context-Free Commentary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf--startsWithDoubleQuote\">\u201cEveryone wants to know about the sex scenes in the movie, there were a lot of them, but in each case they were the least difficult part of the scenes to work with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of scars and bruises in this movie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s conceptually violent, it does violence to people\u2019s concepts of what is proper and acceptable and conceivable even.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is definitely the \u2018using the dildo\u2019 takes that you see in this movie here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Technology<\/a> at its most boring is in fact the most potent technology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were all very determined in the movie, the cast and I, to make the sexuality as real and as awkward and as strange as it would be under these circumstances.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the things that this movie does is it offers sequential sex scenes which is something that drives a lot of people mad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt seems to be that the only way you can become immortal is to die young in some flamboyant way in public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI work in a very spontaneous way, there\u2019s very little planned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of discussion about this movie and anal sex.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are those strange characters and those strange creatures who exist at the margins of society, and I am interested in that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the car wash I was not really worried about how long a car wash takes.
