...fact that this is an American film located in the notoriously racist Los Angeles, would suggest that Hollywood believes America still has a huge problem with racism, but my current fear is the extent that this is becoming rife within the UK, with more and more racially motivated attacks occurring in towns and cities across the country. The recent mindless and shocking murder of schoolboy Anthony Walker in Huyton, Liverpool was a stark and upsetting ...
...be.

I share the opinion of another reviewer I saw some time ago on this film, and that is that both the good guys and bad guys are easily recognisable in the film. All the bad guys are cigarette chain-smokers, with obesity problems, and marked from head to two in tattoos. Oh, and they may guzzle a fair amount of alcohol too. On the flip side, the good guys are usually English teachers, budding writers / teachers, who are trying to ... more

He learned this nonsense and he can unlearn it too

Advantages: explicit, brilliant dilaogue, dareing view.
Disadvantages: ending

"Racists are so stupid. Hating people just because they're black. We're all the same underneath" What is revealed in this film is that often nothing could be further than the truth- often racists and members of hate groups are frighteningly intelligent. Intelligence in the sense of being very selective about what they read and learn which supports their viewpoint. There are many racist lectures given by Ed Norton's character, Derek Vinyard which ...

...until 1998, when Kaye made American History X that he gained focus from the film industry. Unfortunately, the attention he received was not entirely positive. After production of the film, Kaye took out a $275 million lawsuit against New Line and the Directors Guild because they had refused to allow him to use a pseudonym (Humpty Dunpty) on the film credits. His reason for this was a reluctance to be associated with the film after Edward Norton edited ...

Kaye also directed the music video, Dani California for the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. ***What's American History X all about*** American History X tells the story of Derek Vinyard played by Edward Norton. It takes place shortly after the Los Angelas race riots ...

White Power - Do Not Make Me Laugh

Advantages: The DVD gives three extra scenes, subtitles,yours forever
Disadvantages: UK prices always higher then Americas!

In around 1968/69 I lived in Fort Walton Beach Florida. This was at the time of the de-segregation of blacks and whites. I had not lived in America that long at the time and for this reason I was not aware of the problems there had been in the South. I remember seeing bus loads of black children all stood on the curb waiting to be emptied and I was surprised to see police cars surrounding them. I didn't know the reason for it at the time. There ...
...the buses. I walked over to the area to see what was happening and was in time to see the buses open their doors to let off their passengers. What happened next I could not believe. The whites who had been shouting so much attacked the kids disembarking from the buses. With baseball bats, hammers, crowbars and lumps of wood, they hit out at those poor kids. Most were around my age but some were older. Fighting broke out as these poor people tried ...

Advantages: See review
Disadvantages: See review

...on as it is in American History X. Centred on the lives of Derek and Danny Vinyard, it is undoubtedly a vicious and merciless tragedy, intended as much to shock the viewer as to educate them. Edward Norton is Derek, an intelligent young skinhead and leader of a group of wannabe-Nazis, convicted of murder after executing two young black men for trying to steal his car in one of the single most memorable, sickening and twisted scenes in Cinema, ever. ...
...to follow in his footsteps, being sucked into the same traps and groups. The film is shot in both black and white and colour, the black and white scenes being those in the past, most notably Derek's early life, and the colour scenes being the current events as they unfold. Derek's first love, maybe his only one, if for his family. His chronically ill mother has been left to look after the family alone, after Derek's father, a fireman, was shot and ...

...warped sense of perfection. American History X is a story of the life of a ‘White Power Movement’ leader in America, who is convicted of manslaughter, of two black men after he caught them attempting to steel his car. Infact he murdered them brutally, but this at the time does not affect his conscience. The film is seen through the eyes of Danny his younger brother, who in some sort of sick way looks up to his older brother, and worships ...
...I feel that even by American or British justice standards to be rather week. In jail he is turned upon by his fellow white supremacists for going against their leader, and at one stage is brutally raped in the showers by a group of them. He is befriended by a black inmate, and soon learns that the colour of your skin, or the god that you worship, (if any) does not make you a good or bad person. The timely intervention and encouragement of a former ...

The DVD Review

Advantages: Surreal but very good little known film
Disadvantages: A bit too strange for some people?

I hadn’t heard of this film, as I guess many of you haven’t, until I was looking through Christina Ricci’s filmography and saw ‘Pecker’. Hmmm, I thought, wonder what it’s about. I love Ricci, she’s one of my favourite actresses and when I saw this DVD in the shop I picked it up. The back of the box told me little, Edward Furlong (Terminator 2, American History X) plays Pecker, a guy who likes to take photos and gets discovered by a New York agent who wants him to have a show in the big city (he lives in a small part of Baltimore). Oh yeah, it mentioned that Ricci was his girlfriend. Well then, I thought, it’s going to be a nice little drama about local lad doing good…same old stuff but I liked the cast so… Oh my God! How strange? This certainly ain’t ...
