American History X is fabulous, and yes agree on The Believer, recommend that indeed.

whats good about this is that really huge guy is in it.....HE's SO ****ing HUGE 😱

American History X

I am thinking about renting this movie since I have never seen it before. Is it any good?

American History X

Yes, quirte...Edward Norton is great as always...one of the better movies ever actually......love it......although it has some quite disturbing scenes for thos less stoic than me (you won't have a problem with it I'm sure)

I thought Edward Furlong was wonderful in this film, yes see it! buy it even. Ending is amazing.

Yeah he was good...I am just particularly fond of Edward Norton in general....so really great movie...meaningfull too.....ending is amazing to...but well.....you people that saw it know.....

I am not even sure what this movie is about. Is it more of a drama type where Norton tries to talk his brother into not being like he was or does it have action in it?

It does have action in it, so it is very watchable, but while watching it you get that message, it works with Flashbacks a lot...(well its basically the movie) ...very good....if you are not sure, rent it...its at least worth that much....

yeah its about a New Wave Nazi who goes to jail after killing some black men who tried to steal his car. When he comes back he tries to convince his brother that he shouldn't go down the same path. great film on all accounts

We had to look at that scene a few times in film studies, I don't mind the actual stomp, it's the teeth on the curb that gets me. Urgh.

Yeah quite....erk 😘......but strangely ausing at the same time....I am bad 😮

They just showed that movie yesterday! 😱

Poor Danny. 🙁

One of the more better-thought out movies of the 1990s.

I don't think very many moviemakers would considering making a piece like this-- if they did, it would definitely not have the same powerful invocation that this one displayed.

They would probably emphasize too much on the

Spoiler:
curbside death, the bathroom rape, and the high school assassination
and totally delete the more moral side of the flick.

That's just me talking, though.

Hm....got that you didn't just spoil great parts of the movie.....you might want to consider editing and put a spoiler warning....

I watched this film over here in the UK one night on TV. By night, I mean late night, it was about 12 when it started. Really good film, though, gives a lot to think about.

I think the best bits of the film are the prison bit - the curbie is sick, made me wince like a biatch. Reminds me of the Glasgow smile, sort of sick thing people do to one another.
