American History X, 1998. Starring Edward Norton, Edward Furlong, Beverly D’Angelo, Avery Brooks, Stacy Keach. (Director: Tony Kaye)
————————————————————————————
Plot: A California neo-Nazi (Norton) gets sent to prison for murder and comes out a changed man. But can the reformed rebel atone for his sins and prevent his younger brother (Furlong) from following in his hate-filled footsteps? With searing performances and gut-wrenching realism, Tony Kaye’s sobering drama offers a compelling and anguishing look at racism, family and forgiveness.
This movie rocks.

"I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it—I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing, I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know — but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me. However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am okay."
