Purpose of this studyCrash is a famous film won the Best Filmat the78th Oscar Award. The film was inspired by a real-lif
3、e incident, and is aboutracialand socialtensions inLos Angeles,California. In the film, several characters stories interweave during two days in Los Angeles. Crash differs from many other films about racism in its rather impartial approach to the issue. Rather than separating the characters into vic
4、tims and offenders, victims of racism are often shown to be prejudiced themselves in different contexts and situations. Also, racist remarks and actions are often shown to stem from ignorance and misconception rather than a malicious personality. While this is exactly the reason why the author write
5、 this thesis. Racism is ubiquitous in America, many researchers have studied the film and wrote many papers about the film. Most of the papers are about how the film acted to eliminate the racial discrimination caused by ignorance and misconception, and finally the characters in the film did it with
6、 the misunderstanding was resolved. However, no one discovers the underlying meaning that the rasicm in the film can not be eliminated for itself is a film with racial discrimination.Consequently, based on the theory of metaphor, the author will take all kinds of interpersonal relationships in the f
7、ilm as the research object, then analyze the specific plot and the cultural conflict in the film, finally to explain the underlying meaning of the film-racial discrimination can not be resolved under the social interpersonal conflict and cultural conflict. This thesis aims to unscramble the racial d
8、iscrimination in America society through the film Crash, then achieve the purpose that people should face their racism so that they can finally learn to change the situation.2. Significance of this studyIt is well known that Crash is a famous and significant film, and it was thought highly of by mas
9、sive media at home and abroad, so, a lot of researchers write various papers about this film. But no one find the underlying meaning of the film, and use metaphor to unscramble the racial discrimination in the film. While the author find that the creation intention and the essence of the film was no
10、t well demonstrated, therefore, it is necessary and significant to write this thesis to reveal the creation intention and the essence of the film.Ametaphoris a figure of speech that identifies something as being the same as some unrelated thing for rhetorical effect, thus highlighting the similariti
11、es between the two. The Philosophy of Rhetoric(1937) byI. A. Richardsdescribes a metaphor as having two parts: thetenorand thevehicle. The tenor is the subject to which attributes are ascribed. The vehicle is the object whose attributes are borrowed. Moreover, some theorists have suggested that meta
12、phors are not merely stylistic, but that they are cognitively important as well. InMetaphors We Live By,George Lakoffand and Mark Johnson argue that metaphors are pervasive in everyday life, not just in language, but also in thought and action. A common definition of a metaphor can be described as a
13、 comparison that shows how two things that are not alike in most ways are similar in another important way. They explain how a metaphor is simply understanding and experiencing one kind of thing in terms of another. The authors also suggest that communication can be viewed as a machine: Communicatio
14、n is not what one does with the machine, but is the machine itself. (Johnson, Lakoff, 1980).Since metaphors are so important and pervasive in our daily life, there must exist uncountable metaphors in the film Crash. Whats more, no one has studied the metaphors in this movie. Therefore, this thesis w
15、ill choose some representative plots, and use metaphor to analyze them, and then find out the underlying meaning of the film. Under the underlying meaning, it will definitely reflect that racial discrimination can not be eliminated. In addition, the significance of the study is to analyze and study the representative plots in Crash based on the theory of metaphor and the movie Crash.3. Previous StudiesA lot of people have written some papers that are related to the movie Crash. Some wrote about the clash of civilization, som
