American History X
Directed by Tony Kaye
1998
★ 6.0 editorial score
Edward Norton added thirty pounds of muscle for it and Tony Kaye tried to take his own name off the finished cut: a former neo-Nazi leaves prison and finds his brother following him.
“Presented in the ersatz poetic idiom of videos and commercials, this is an inflated yet gut-slugging film that dares to address America's neo-Nazi culture with brutal candor. Its toughest images stick even when its lurid self-aggrandizing spins out of control.”
