Review of White Lies

White Lies (1998 TV Movie)
a cheap knockoff of American History X

Warning: Spoilers
Canada has the greatest free speech and free thought in the world. But if you use them to disagree with the status quo, that makes you a racist. Sarah merely asks a question & is ostracized. She turns to the white community and is warmly accepted as a white person using her mind.

It's hard to explain parts of the story since they would only happen in a liberal's mind. But Sarah is pushed too quickly into the White Supremist Movement and has a breakdown.

Interiews with the actors post production make it clear they want the baddies to not be too bad. They had no reason to be.

American History X has a war, the whites are the good guys, their neighborhood is being invaded by blacks who drive up crime. You don't have to like either side, but it is more understandable.
