Captivating Storytelling & Revolutionary Techniques
Many tout this film to be the birth of the feature film, but I believe it merely the popularization of it. There are many foreign films that came out before Griffith’s historically skewed work here that tell a full-length story over several years with an equal amount of depth. Regardless of these nits and all the hype, this film is truly exceptional. It is a shame that it tells a story that is not completely grounded in reality. I am amazed at how well it holds up over a century after its initial release. I believe this is mandatory viewing for any American history class.Here is how I came out with a rating of a 9/10:
Titles……………………………………………………………….. 10 (out of 10) Screenplay………………………………………………….,…… 9 Performances…………………………………………………… 9 Cinematography………………………………………………. 10 Editing………………………………………………………………. 7 Score………………………………………………………………… 10 55/60 =~ 9.2 (which I rounded down to a 9)
