Brokeback is excellent, and I am disappointed it didn't win. I know a lot of people find it too slow, but for me, the pace was appropriate for the film. I hereby gua-ran-tee you that Heath Ledger will never be better. IMHO, Ang Lee is the best actor's director working today: he makes mediocre actors good, and good actors great.
I have not seen Crash -- I am too afraid it will be like Grand Canyon, another ensemble let's-look-at-racism-in-LA picture that was godawful, despite good actors and a good pedigree. But I will probably pony up to the bar soon enough...
