    Ah, what a long three hours. During the process, I have to stop and bite my mouth and clench my fists from time to time. Even a pure East Asian yellow-skinned person can be so angry that he can imagine the mood of African Americans. All the technical innovations—dolly track, breathing space and emotional touch on camera, close-ups of characters, even neutral animal races (Griffith really loves animals as human symbolizers)—are just to convey: "WE are so much better than YOU", disgusting. The...

    Part 1 (USCivil War) : ★★★★★ Part 2 (Ku Klux Klan) : ★★★☆☆ [193min] The second part of Griffith, a 100-year-old business epic, is too high to be completed No matter how high, Hollywood is really starting to...

    Leaving aside the theme, parallel narrative, lemo photography, and the "last minute rescue" created by Ge can only be said to be great. Some of the performances seem exaggerated and ridiculous today, but don't forget that it was 1915, and when I think about it, I adore him. George Sadur said Griffith's racism as a Southerner was tolerable, but aside from black issues, he was a humanitarian, eager to progress, and had sincere...

    A movie like this can never be given five stars, although from a purely artistic point of view, it couldn't be...

    On an uneventful afternoon, I finished watching this film history classic in Changsha. The parallel montage of Wagner's Valkyrie with "Last Minute Rescue" couldn't have been better. The 1915 film, although the lens is still very young, has been very clever in the performance, scenes, narrative and suspense settings. The tribute to the Ku Klux Klan almost directly opened the Führer's "Triumph of the Will". Bravo! PS: Are the Ku Klux Klan shapes sure not to imitate the...

    In terms of momentum, it is still worse than "intolerance", and the makeup inside is so rough! White people pretending to be black people look...

    To be honest it was the first big hit in movie history and it was really intense now it seems a bit like praising a robber...

    Griffith is really amazing, this is a history of white people being persecuted by black people! Fortunately, the KKK finally saved everyone. . . I saw a lot of shooting and editing techniques that were newly created at that time, and I waited for the professor to give a lecture on the use of color in the film =...

    "The Birth of a Nation"-Griffith, Satan with a smile on God's face

    [It used to be a film and television appreciation class homework]
    Griffith, a director who loves and hates, a director who has a profound influence on the development of film art but is accompanied by dissent.
    This film not only caused a huge influence at the time, but also affected the development...

    "The Birth of a Nation in Two or Three Languages"

    I turned off the music for the first hour and a half, and turned it on for the latter part, and finally finished watching the whole film. Music should be matched by later generations. I learned a lot after watching the movie. 1. In retrospect, the previous history textbooks may only give a...
