American History X
1998 · Directed by Tony Kaye
Derek Vineyard is paroled after serving 3 years in prison for killing two African-American men.

Reformed and fresh out of prison, Derek severs contact with the gang and becomes determined to keep Danny from going down the same violent path as he did.
