Of course Griffith …
Of course Griffith was a racist, has nothing to do with making the movie, but people of his generation were racist, they knew no better
you should learn …
you should learn your history, back in those days after the war, the south was broke, hence sprung forth a lot of crime, and “mafia” like group was formed called the carpet baggers, they gave blacks rights and freedom, not because they were good, but just to anger, when the KKK first formed, it was spearheaded against the carpet baggers and the blacks that worked along side them, KKK, believe it or not, were a good organization in the beginning, but they like most powers got out of hand.
Very good. I notice …
Very good. I notice that this seems to have some influence on Russian cinema after the Bolshevik revolution.
All right, either …
All right, either you’re a racist too and feel the need to defend DWG’s way-more-than-obviously reactionary views of society or else you’re a simpleton who can’t get it that Griffith could be both a reactionary politically (and socially and whatever else) while at the same time revolutionize film-making.
Either way, “daughterrevolution” (an avatar, by the way, which cries out “ultra-right-wing”), you come off as stupid. “The Broken Blossoms” is also known as “The Chink and the Child”.
DW Griffith was NOT …
DW Griffith was NOT a racist. He made a later 1918 film about WW One showing a black soldier and a white soldier kissing one another on the lips. He sent money for 20 years to a black actress who had appeared in Birth of a Nation. He made Broken Blossoms which was a film about interracial romance.
No “karma” involved with Griffith, he got old and died – just like YOU will someday. So stop lying.
Depending on your …
Depending on your time: A Corner in Wheat, Birth of a Nation, Dancing Mothers, All Quiet on the Western Front, Grapes of Wrath, Casablanca, The Best Years of Our Lives, On the Waterfront, Salt of the Earth, Dr. Strangelove, The Graduate, Norma Rae, Network, Coming Home, American Beauty.

FOISTED BY HIS OWN PITARD!!!
Birth of a Nation …
Birth of a Nation and the resurgence of the KKK would be an interesting topic. As i understand it the KKK was dying out, and D W Gr. racist views had some bad repercussions against the Black communities-riots, lynchings and burning homes- and led to the rebirth of the KKK. Karma got back to DWG, he died penniless.
I am schedule to …
I am schedule to teach a U.S. History in Film class. What would be your top films to show/discuss?
It was 1909, there …
It was 1909, there was no synchronized audio at the time, which made room for people to write different variations of accompanying music and sound effects.
The same background …
The same background audience noise… Is that normal? The first time I saw this film it didn’t have that audience.
