What is River's Edge / The Chocolate War about?

RIVER'S EDGE, 1986, MGM Repertory, 99 min. Director Tim Hunter's tale of disaffected teens who are tainted by either knowledge or complicity in a young girl’s murder, hits as hard today as it did 20 years ago. A smart, literate, fearless movie chock- full of amazing performances, from conscience-stricken Keanu Reeves, to visably damaged psychotic adult Dennis Hopper, to crazed and mesmerizing Crispin Glover. THE CHOCOLATE WAR, 1988, MGM Repertory, 100 min. Ilan Mitchell-Smith is a student who resists headmaster Brother John’s (John Glover) orders to participate in a school-wide chocolate-selling fundraiser. He consequently incurs the wrath of the students’ fascist secret society run by Wallace Langham and Adam Baldwin who go to ridiculous lengths to break his will.
