1998’s American History X isn’t just a great '90s movie, but a film whose content and subject matter are still relevant today. The movie's protagonist, Derek Vinyard, was played by acclaimed actor Edward Norton in one of his career-defining roles.
Norton's gripping and raw performance gave moviegoers an in-depth look into the life of a neo-Nazi skinhead and his gradual shift away from the movement. The movie is still a poignant reminder of the work we need to do to progress as a society.
Norton received an Academy Award nomination for his stellar performance, but here’s why he was never the same after American History X.
