I own it but, aside from Russell Crowe I don't really enjoy it all that much.

ECG basically said everything I believe about the two movies already. What I thought was brilliant about This Is England was that it showed believably how people can be brain-washed. American History X jumped from "regular kid" to "White Supremacist Killer" without enough backstory.

Norton was amazing in the film but yeah, it kind of made racism look good for Christ's sake.

I am still planning of re-editing the film and taking all of the positive message out. I think it would be disturbingly funny.
