As for the OP.... yeah American History X is an epic film, with a very powerful message, and the role- and performance-of-a-lifetime by the great Edward Norton.

Exactly. The racial angle was subsidiary to the main idea of the film which is the resonant anger in humanity as a whole. These characters could easily be replaced with any 2 different sectors of people and result in the same outcome.

I have this on VHS.

My mom bought it for me when it first came out, she didn't know what it was about.

Watched AHX, The Believer and Romper Stomper not long ago. All the lead actors did a great job.

It has one of the saddest movie endings of all time. I also love this part.
