About this product
Product Information
This landmark film from silent director D.W. Griffith was the first movie blockbuster. However, it also reveals a horribly racist version of American history. The first part of the film chronicles the Civil War as experienced through the eyes of two families; the Stonemans from the North, and the Camerons of the South. Lifelong friends, they become divided by the Mason-Dixon line, with tragic results. Large-scale battle sequences and meticulous historical details culminate with a staged re-creation of Lincoln's assassination. The second half chronicles the Reconstruction, as Congressman Austin Stoneman (Ralph Lewis) puts evil Silas Lynch (George Siegmann) in charge of the liberated slaves at the Cameron hometown of Piedmont. Armed with the right to vote, the freed slaves cause all sorts of trouble until Ben Cameron (Henry B. Walthall) founds the Ku Klux Klan and restores order and "decency" to the troubled land.

Reviews
Common Sense Media - D.W. Griffith's THE BIRTH OF A NATION is as much a part of film history as the Civil War is a part of American history., Variety - THE BIRTH OF A NATION is a great epoch in picture making; it's great for pictures and it's great for the name and fame of David Wark Griffith. When a man like Griffith in a new field can do what he has done, he may as well be hailed while he is living., The Guardian UK - The quasi-Victorian Griffith was in so many respects way ahead of his time even if his philosophy and mind-set could often be said to be behind it., Empire Magazine - THE BIRTH OF A NATION has become a staple of any film studies course, for its excellent performances, thrilling action sequences and epic landscapes.

Very helpful and understanding seller gave full refund as I requested because I had not noticed that the Region Code was USA/Region 1, so I asked to cancel the transaction. A big thank you to Tilly's Thrift Store. A++
