Crash

Crash (the David Cronenberg one)
The David Cronenberg one, not Crash (the Sandra Bullock one) that caused Jack Nicholson so much surprise when he announced it had won Best Film at the Oscars.
Mark loved Crash so much he thought it should be seen by everyone. The Daily Mail's Chris Tookey campaigned for it to be banned (as it indeed was, by Westminster Council at least). There was a bit of a falling out. It was a measure of how good Enchanted was that two critics with views as diametrically opposed as this could embrace each other afterwards and say, "wasn't that just wonderful?"
