The synopsis to this film just makes me think "why is this about Virginian anti-nazis and not french communist anti-nazis" Obviously the answer is "because its easier to get a film about american kids fighting nazis funded than a film about communists [who aren't Hollywood writers]" but still. Kind of continues the question from GITS drama of "why does this even need to happen?"

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Back up and write that out a little. I'm just surprised that the film, with its premise, doesn't take place in a setting/scenario with stronger historical ties to anti-neonazis. France has an insanely interesting history of leftist anti-fascist gangs squaring off against neonazis that is ripe for exploitation. Particularly with groups such as The Black Dragons and the Red Warriors. I'l admit that I haven't [yet] seen the movie itself, so maybe it goes towards more American themes. Or maybe I'm being ignorant and Virginia has an equally crazy history.

Criminal Minded posted:That was kind of a weird post, though. It's a movie about a punk band, which the director himself has direct experience with, not a movie about the specific politics of neo-Nazis. The fact that they're neo-Nazis is mostly just a signifier that these are unscrupulous hosed-up people. I honestly missed the band part. And yeah, not much experience with this director (at least, not enough to know him specifically). I'l probably check his stuff out later; I like what I've read in this thread.
