I didn't say it meant it was a "good" movie. But, Brokeback WAS a good movie, plus it was ground breaking. Crash was an excellent movie. But, that premise was done before. SPike Lee had a movie back in the late 80s called "Do the right thing" which addressed the same issues, albeit in a less sophisticated way. The point is, Brokeback is avant garde. Crash was just an excellent, well-made movie.
