Impressive

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 1999)

American History X slaps you in the face, as you see that Derek Vinyard, the guy that you saw horribly killing a black man, makes a pretty good point at the dining table, discussing immigration politics with his mum's Jewish friend. Unlike the characters, things aren't black or white in this movie. Which is good. It made an enormous impression on me, and Edward Norton is really unbelievable (especially when you remember him playing Aaron Stampler in Primal Fear!).
