Review of The Birth of a Nation (1915) by Brian S — 22 Aug 2011
I got more educated then entertained although it has it moments which amazed me e.g.: war battles.
In my opinion, it's a good film (amazingly directed). It took a risk, but it has made a success. And some people may find it a bad film, other find it an exquisite film.
I don't find it racist at all, especially because D.W. Griffith wanted to show what really happened. So, you can't blame him for provoking.
It truly is a film which you need to see in different perspectives otherwise, I think, you might miss the clue.
The music was terrific.
