Not a nice movie at all. But it's compelling in the way it makes you think and opens your eyes to beliefs that I've never come across in person.
But I loved this movie! Complete story with great characters and setting!
American History X
Derek Vinyard wasn't born a racist, but he learnt quickly how to become one.
Seeking retribution for his father's murder and burning for a way to vent his rage, Derek (Oscar nominee, Edward Norton) turned into the charismatic skinhead leader of a local white power movement. From theft and assault, Derek's violent actions escalated into all-out-war, culminating in the brutal murder of two teenagers.
In his eyes, race-hate justice had been dealt. Now after three years in prison everyone awaits Derek's return; his gang, his violent girlfriend – and his greatest fan, his brother, Danny (Edward Furlong). But what they are about to encounter is a man who no longer views hatred as a badge of honour. Ashamed of his past, Derek is in a race to save Danny and his family from the violence he's brought down upon them.
