"Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages" uses an unprecedented editing approach, using four distinct stories to express the theme of paranoia. And these four stories happened in different historical periods, and the time span even exceeds 2000 years. However, unlike people's impressions in the past, DW Griffith's four stories are not told one after another, but they are divided into several small fragments, which are rearranged and appear alternately, only with a scene of a mother shaking her cradle as a transition. However, such an attempt went beyond the era of DW Griffith because of its too advanced film concept, and the film suffered a fiasco at the box office. However, in terms of artistic exploration, the film became a pioneer of multi-segment narrative films. Film history has been given the title of a "brilliant failure"   .
"Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages" is undoubtedly the last cry of all the voices and talents of the early independent filmmakers before the financial conglomerates took full control of the film industry   . At the same time, it also creates a world of pictographic language that can be applied everywhere   .

    9.5/10. The four stories alternate, and their common themes are love and tolerance: the annexation of Babylon by Persia, the crucifixion of Jesus, the religious massacre of Saint Bartholomey in France, the conflict between workers and capitalists in the twentieth century , is the story of a young worker who had a relationship with a former boss because of his salary. After the latter died, he was framed as a murderer and sentenced to death. His wife tried her best to find the real murderer to save him). One of the biggest audiovisual highlights is the film's multi-timeline parallel narrative structure (transitions through subtitle cards), and the other is the parallel montage/theme montage (generated by juxtaposing events from different timelines). Both are groundbreaking. In addition, the gorgeous setting and costumes, the scheduling of grand scenes (such as the two parts of Babylon's return from victory and the destruction of the city. That scheduling!), the use of cross-montages (such as the rescue of the young workers at the end), etc. Pretty good. It's a pity that the film itself was born too early, and inevitably there are technical limitations.

    It's amazing, it's so amazing, I'm at a loss for words, the four-line montage, and the extreme era collage has no sense of disobedience. The girl in the mountains of Babylon is so beautiful, just like Ma Yun

  • Intertitle: When cannon and prison bars wrought in the fires of intolerance - And perfect love shall bring peace forevermore. Instead of prison walls - Bloom flowery fields.
