    Extractions: Es gibt Filme, die sind wie ein Schlag in den Magen, wie ein Stich in die Seele. "American History X" ist solch ein Film. Niemand verläßt ihn ohne Erschütterung. Denn was sich in den knapp zwei Stunden abspielt, ist ein Drama, das von dem heimlichen Bürgerkrieg in den USA, Rassismus und dem Kreislauf der Gewalt, aber auch der Auflehnung dagegen handelt. Dass er mit Bildern umgehen kann, hat der Brite Tony Kaye (46) als preisgekrönter Werbe- und Videoclip-Filmer ("Runaway Train") längst bewiesen. "American History X" hätte sein rauschendes Debüt als Filmregisseur werden sollen. In den USA hat er sich diesen Karrieresprung selbst vermasselt. Unzufrieden mit der endgültigen Fassung (Hauptdarsteller Edward Norton übernahm beim Schnitt das Kommando), versuchte Kaye in einem öffentlich ausgetragenen Streit vergeblich seinen Namen vom Projekt streichen zu lassen. Viel Lärm um nichts - denn "American History X" ist ein tief beeindruckender Film. David McKennas (Drehbuch) Annäherung an das Phänomen Rassismus ist glaubwürdig und kommt weitgehend ohne Klischees aus. Seine in schwarz-weiß Rückblenden erzählte Studie über eine weiße Familie fasziniert. Kayes überragende Kameraarbeit sorgt dafür - und eben auch der geschmähte Star Edward Norton. Sein Spagat zwischen furchteinflößendem Killer und verantwortungsbewußtem Bruder bescherte ihm eine "Oscar"-Nominierung in der Rubrik "bester Hauptdarsteller".

Er war sehr gut in der Schule und weiß sich eloquent auszudrücken. So steigt er trotz (oder wegen) seiner schlimmen Tat in der Nazi-Szene zur Ikone auf, die er für seinen Bruder Danny schon lange ist. In den Jahren, die sein Bruder im Gefängnis verbringt, verkehrt er auch in der Gruppe um Alexander und macht sich daran, in die Fußstapfen seines großen Bruders zu steigen. Der Tag der EntlassungAm Tag von Dereks Entlassung hat der sich, zur großen Überraschung von Danny, im Gefängnis komplett gewandelt. Angewidert von den Methoden der inhaftierten anderen Nazis, die mit Latinos Drogenhandel treiben und ihn sogar vergewaltigen, schließt er Freundschaft mit Lamont (Guy Torry), einem schwarzen Mitgefangenen, mit dem er gemeinsam in der Gefängnis-Wäscherei arbeitet und revidiert seine alten Ideale. Geläutert durch die Zeit im Gefängnis, die er wohl nur dank seines farbigen Freundes überhaupt überlebt, gibt es für Derek keinen Weg zurück in die rechte Szene. Er macht sich auf, ein neues Leben zu beginnen und will auch seinem Bruder Alternativen aufzeigen. Am Ende holt ihn aber seine Vergangenheit auf tragische Weise wieder ein: Während er auf dem Weg zur Highschool seines Bruders ist, trifft Danny in der Toilette auf einen jungen, dunkelhäutigen Mitschüler, gegen den er am Tag zuvor einen Jungen verteidigt hatte. Der farbige Junge rächt sich für die Blamage, die ihm Danny am Tag zuvor beigebracht hat und feuert mehrfach auf Danny. Derek läuft mit einer schlimmen Vorahnung durch die Schule, um seine Vermutung bestätigt zu sehen: Danny ist tot.

    Interview with Edward Norton about the movie, and 6 different reviews.  
    http://www.filmvault.com/filmvault/chicago/a/americanhistoryx1.html
    
    Extractions: "American History X" is a powerful, vivid portrait of what are often called "hate crimes," yet its director, Tony Kaye, has been committing hate crimes toward his own bravura work. Kaye wanted more time to massage his debut film, and when his request was refused, asked that his name be removed from the work. Bad-mouthing New Line Cinema and star Edward Norton, both publicly and in a series of eccentric ads in trade papers, Kaye may be obscuring the power of his substantial on-screen accomplishment. With almost every shot calibrated for maximum elegy or "kapow!," this crunchy melodrama is sensationalism with heart. As Derek Vinyard, an articulate L.A. skinhead just released from prison for the murder of two young black men, Edward Norton is simply remarkable, giving a rare kind of focused, intent performance that is laden with star dazzle yet always in the service of the character. The drama unfolds as two parallel stories. The-present, in color, presents Vinyard with the dilemma of talking his admiring younger brother (Edward Furlong, fine as always) out of the beliefs he no longer holds. The past plays out in black-and-white, largely in thrillingly tight-in close-ups, to show how the two brothers got to where they are. Kaye's work as director and cinematographer has an unusual, bracing intensity, yet it dances with the danger of becoming merely didactic. "I would probably say we went the other way," Norton says, toying with a bottle cap, "to be sure that the movie didn't overwhelm the message. [Even with] the power of the imagery, [we made] very, very sure that this guy, however heroic he may seem in the subjective memories of his brother, that the present tense storyline gives the lie to any kind of glamorization of him, any kind of suggestion that there's a positive outcome to this kind of behavior."
