‘Masterpiece’ crime drama that’s a ‘fantastic movie’ – on Amazon Prime | Films | Entertainment

If you’re looking for an unforgettable film to watch, there’s one that should be on your list. The film tells the story of a white supremacist who is released from prison as a changed man. It follows his journey as he hopes to prevent his younger brother from following in his footsteps.

American History X was released in 1998, and it is partially based on true events. Former white supremacist Frank Meeink was arrested at the age of 17, and he spent three years in prison. While he was there, he befriended several inmates of various ethnicities and grew to reject his former beliefs. One person who watched the film on IMDB penned: “A masterpiece! Truly one of the best films I have ever seen.”

Another person penned: “This is a fantastic movie because no matter what side you’re on in life, this movie shows them all, good and bad, right or wrong.”

The film stars Edward Norton, but the actor was not the first choice for American History X. Joaquin Phoenix reportedly turned the role down due to the movie’s subject matter – as a result, Norton was offered the spot.

On Rotten Tomatoes, one fan adds: “If I could give this film more stars, I would. American History X masterfully presents real-world social issues through compelling fictional characters and an unflinching narrative.
