Crossing Over is a multi-character canvas about immigrants of

different nationalities struggling to achieve legal status in Los

Angeles. The film deals with the border, document fraud, the

asylum and green card process, work-site enforcement,

naturalization, the office of counter terrorism and the clash of

cultures.

Crossing Over, a series of vignettes that suggest a shotgun wedding of Traffic and Crash, runs the gamut from wonderful to what –the – [email protected] twists. Kramer gives the movie such a pulse. Ford brings a quiet intensity to Max Brogan, the immigration cop whose years on the job haven't hardened him to the plight of the illegals. Trust Kramer(director/writer), though, to spring surprises with the help of a risk –taking cast. Ray Liotta brings astonishing dimension to Cole Frankel, a piece of INS slime who helps Claire (Alice Eve), an Aussie actress wanna – be, get her green card by making her his sex slave for two months. Cole's lawyer wife, Denise (Ashley Judd), is appalled. Liotta excels at showing the cracks in Cole's facade, and his speech to Claire, in a burst of keen self awareness,that cuts deep. Kramer takes on a hot, unwieldy topic in Crossing Over — the dream that immigrants have of U.S. citizenship and the nightmare of achieving it, especially with shortcuts that create incomprehensible demoralization of ones character.
