Bite the Curb

American History X is a film that has been seen by many people. From all the people I have known that have seen the film are squeamish about a certain scene in particular. You guys know what I am talking about, the "bite the curb" scene.

The movie is based on a small group of neo-Nazis in the late 80's-early 90's. It is about two brothers who share similar values. In the beginning of the film, we see Derek Vinyard spot two black men attempting to steal his car. He goes outside to take care of it by shooting one of the men and having the other "bite the curb."

Here is a site that has everything you need to know about the film. Check it out and enjoy

Keep in mind that this film is centered around racism, particularly towards black and Jewish people.
