In the early days of the film's birth, with such a large-scale film, a strong world view and religious concept, it can't be said that what can be said of the classics? I believe that the scene of that year cannot be filmed in China...

As a mysterious prototype, the cradle is like a page turning between music and music, which is attached to this magnificent film. Eisenstein didn't think it made sense, but the technique has dominated almost all experimental cinema since the 1910s. Isn't Emily Watson in "Breaking the Waves" playing The Dear One? "Dancer in the Darkness" is also a reproduction of the hanging. Not to mention the holy bell in the sky at the end of "Breaking the Waves". How many people want to be Griffith, but they...

There is no doubt that Griffith is a genius, and his editing methods and narrative structure are the basis for the development of the film and inspire generations of generations all the time. But this film is definitely not that outstanding, the multi-line structure and cross-cutting used by Griffith did not help him achieve the great idea he wanted to express, but dragged down the narrative structure, and the film did not box office well. It also shows that the eyes of the masses are indeed...

1916 Meg Griffith's film narrative is clearly influenced by Dickens. Brilliant failure. His dedication inspired the European avant-garde artists of the 1920s. The narrative form is influenced by Dickens, with alternate montages. The four stories are related in theme, far away in time, and unconnected in plot. The principle of taking the lens as the basic unit of the film's space-time structure is established. Movies begin to have the syntax of the screen

This is undoubtedly a work ahead of its time. In fact, even when viewed by the standards of contemporary cinema, the level of narrative complexity and the ability to integrate themes are insurmountable peaks, not to mention in the era of silent films where the plot is generally monolithic. Compared to that, gorgeous sets and elaborate props are already added bonuses. Griffith, uncharacteristically procrastinated, begins to lean towards refinement, and cloud maps that mimic this style are...

In 1925, "Film Magazine" published the article "Failure of the Ideal Blockbuster", such a complex film was placed in Shanghai at that time, and the audience was indeed incomprehensible. Judging from today's markings, Griffith's masterpiece is unparalleled, and he does not hesitate to show the cruelty of ancient warfare. The parallel editing and the last-minute rescue are thrilling, and the emotions are really as the director said, like four streams converging into a raging tide of dykes...

Three stars, one star for Griffith, one star for the hard-pressed subtitles team, and one star for myself who has finished 160 minutes. I’m sorry for giving more and less. Silent movies are still enjoyed only by...

3.5, more than half of the stars given to history. Without escaping the restrictions of the stage play, it is basically a blind patchwork of single-view lenses. One of the few close-ups, a place of real beauty. Music sucks. Basically equivalent to Eisenstein's dialectical montage. But according to Deleuze: Eisenstein's organic montage spiral of life should be presented scientifically through dialectics, not empirically (parallel montage). [Personal understanding is that the whole is only...

Mistakes and Reunions
About the version: I first watched a 123-minute version on Youku. The quality and duration of the picture affected the understanding of the plot. After watching it for ten minutes, I was completely clueless. So I went to a 175-minute high-definition version, and the effect was very good.

Eternal women, lead us to ascension
Viewed on the computer, blurry images, poor translation, and an abridged version, the scene of the crucifixion was cut out, which is a pity. What I feel most deeply is the women in the movie:
the girl in the mountains in the story of the fall of Babylon, full of vitality and rebellious spirit....
