i've been wanting to watch this movie for years, but never got around to renting it. i finally did after talking to a friend about it.

shit.

great movie that brings about valid points from both sides. edward norton was nominated for an academy award for best actor in a leading role as the leader of a racist skinhead movement in california. it's about his reformation after being in jail for 3 years for killing two people, and it's consequences on his family.

my parents are watching it now. i love this movie, but i can't stomach to watch it again until a few hours from now. gotta let it sink in.

and also, there is the anti-racist action. they have chapters all over north america. i've been told that there are about a million ARA skinheads in Jacksonville, FL alone and they're all cool as hell.

that movie definitely rocks... have you seen 'primal fear'? edward norton's performance in that is also brilliant.

that was a powerful film
it did create some deep impacts on the mind....and emotions...:)....

It was so sad...with a tinge of hope....it confronted the problems that still run rampant in the US (and all over the world). and though it represented the extremist version, that is something that actually happens, it makes you wake up to the facts, it makes you realize what you're missing and what you're innocently (?) a part of.

i loved it
