Two things hold the interest: Norton's astounding performance, and a feeling for the male reality of reactionary working class environments.

American History X may be flawed, but it's not easily forgotten.

Rating: 4.5/5 --
American History X advocates that "those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it"? It's a powerful social document and should be part of your film watching curriculum.

Common Sense Media
...AMERICAN HISTORY X has enough fiery acting and provocative bombast to make its impact felt....It has been directed with a mixture of handsome photo-realism and visceral punch...
New York Times
...An intense achievement....An excellent cast, the young leads stand out, including a best-yet performance from Furlong... -- 4 out of 5 stars

Rating: 3.5/4 --
If didactic and overwrought at times, it's also powerful and persuasive. [Blu-ray]

Product Description:
Edward Norton gives an impassioned performance as Derek Vinyard, a Southern Californian skinhead who must do time after committing a hateful murder. Once in jail, his mind opens and he sees the error of his ways. Upon reentering the real world, he must now turn his attentions to his younger brother Danny, who is swiftly heading down the same path as his brother. Controversy surrounded the film when director Tony Kaye disowned it, claiming that Norton had the film re-edited without Kaye's permission. Norton still got an Oscar Nomination for his intense performance.
