What's left behind the scenes

  • Arnold Schwarzenegger himself appeared in the film. However, not in his usual role as an actor, but as the Governor of California. His framed photograph hangs on the wall of Lieutenant Dixon's office.
  • The role of Hansen (Ryan Phillippe) could have gone to Heath Ledger.
  • Director Paul Haggis himself was once a victim of car thieves. This circumstance played a significant role in the creation of the film.
  • Sandra Bullock was so eager to participate in the filming of this movie that she bought a plane ticket at her own expense and went to the set.
  • The role of the television director was offered to Forest Whitaker. However, the director declined to participate in the project in favor of his own – “First Daughter” (2004).
  • John Cusack was initially considered for the role of Rick (Brendan Fraser).
  • The screenplay for the film was written back in 2001.
  • Lions Gate Films acquired the distribution rights for $4 million at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival.
  • In order to stay within a not particularly large budget ($6 million), Paul Haggis provided his own house (in the film, the Cabot house) and car for filming.
  • Approximately 130,000 copies of the film were sent to members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), various guilds, and film critics.
  • “Crash” was the first film to win an “Oscar” after its rights were purchased at a film festival.
  • “Crash” was the first film in history, shot wholly or in part in Los Angeles, to subsequently receive an “Oscar” for Best Picture.
  • “Crash” was the first film since “Rocky” (1976) to win the “Oscar” for Best Picture, ultimately receiving a total of three “Oscars” (typically such films win four or more).
  • Kathleen York, who wrote the song "Into the Deep" for the film, played a cameo role: she portrayed a police officer reporting to Graham (Don Cheadle) about what happened in the film's opening scene.
  • The director's cut has a runtime of 115 minutes.
  • The lyrics and music for the satirical racist song "Gonna Buy Me A Rope," hummed by one of the Black hijackers in the stolen Lincoln, were written by the film's director, Paul Haggis.
  • Michelle Rodriguez was considered for the role of Christine Thayer, which was later played by Thandie Newton.
  • Filming took place from December 8, 2003, to January 31, 2004.
  • The words and music to the mocking, racist song “Gonna Buy Me A Rope,” sung by one of the Black hijackers in the stolen Lincoln, were written by the film's director, Paul Haggis.
