Intolerance (1916)
Intolerance and its terrible effects are examined in four historical eras. In ancient Babylon, a mountain girl is caught up in the religious rivalry that leads to the city's downfall. In Judea, the hypocritical Pharisees condemn Jesus Christ. In 1572 Paris, unaware of the impending St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, two young Huguenots prepare for marriage. Finally, in modern America, social reformers destroy the lives of a young woman and her beloved. (imdb)

Griffith ignores subtlety here, going instead for the bombastic: the Babylonian set and costuming are jaw-dropping. Unfortunately, the stories aren't quite so powerful, and there are a lot of similar-looking and -acting characters in the four sequences (I idly thought it would have been interesting if he had tried to re-use actors, reincarnated-like). The "enjoyment" level here might be slightly below average, but this is one you watch for the technical aspects of film.

Arguably more interesting now as a "museum piece" and historical landmark than "entertainment" - the sheer scale Griffith is working in here is staggering, especially during the Babylon sequences; the tone of abject melodrama is supposed to match this I suppose, but doesn't always convince. Still it is fun to watch Griffith experiment with (and invent) film grammar in front of our eyes, but for all its more difficult elements, BIRTH OF A NATION remains his high water mark.

Watching much of Griffith's hugely ambitious epic feels like a struggle through the ages in itself -- by turns it is repetitive, confusing, sometimes dull -- and it's so, so long. But there is no denying the immense scale of the project and the majesty of the sets, and the siege of Babylon sequence is truly astounding more than a century on.

The sheer scope of this thing is amazing. The sets, art direction, cinematography were all truly captivating unfortunately the same could not be said for the story, pacing and length. This is definitely one film where each minute feels like two. That being said the positives outweigh the negatives and this really is a must watch for people who are into film history as well as for film buffs in general.

"Ambitious", in one word. Not didactic but comical and funny, for me. I loved the ways the actresses acted then: that mountain girl of Babylon and the cute, American "Dear One" who lost her child to the caricatured "Reformer" bitches!

It would take quite a while for people to catch up with the imagery of Griffth and we haven't progressed much in a storytelling way. At least in terms of mainstream cinema. Good stuff.

It is really too long and you occasionally get the impression that if he were alive today Griffith would have a spicy Twitter account but the last half hour or so is an incredibly intense piece of filmmaking and that pushes the score much higher than I thought it would be.

Okay, impressive is the word here. I did enjoy the impressiveness. But the stories were soooo melodramatic. And, really, which history did those poor innocent Babylonians get pulled from? The Mountain Girl was entertaining in her antics, though.

The masterpiece of early American cinema. The two main films - the Babylon story and the Modern story - were amazing. The sets and costumes of the former were mind-blowing, spectacular for the year of production. The latter delivered an emotion-packed tale with heartfelt performances - Mae Marsh is phenomenal. The other two stories, were mediocre. Incredible link between through the stories via Lillian Gish and the cradle - an unforgettable image. A brutal film - gore and early Hollywood boobs.

(Pv) It's a bit ironic and even more insightful that the tale about the struggle for love and tolerance shares the same author as Birth of a Nation (1915). It in fact might undermine his entire project in more ways than the obvious, because it evidences that the struggles revisionist Griffith presents could, similarly to Birth of a Nation, be constituent out of far too many parts to be reduced to love and intolerance. These terms should instead be considered descriptive rather than explanative.

Visually stimulating film. Particularly loved the babylon story...the excess, the battles, all of it was amazing to watch. One of the few "historic" films I've seen that I've enjoyed as entertainment as well as history...despite that length....took me a few sittings to see it all.

Grand production values, and a noble attempt at narrative complexity and depth. The mix seems misjudged, the Babylon sequences taking precedent over better material, I guess due to PV. Best stories -Christ and France times- are shortchanged. Final half hour or so goes a long way in elevating this -but you have to get there...

Yes it is a great work of a great craftsman and offers very diverse and quality shots which serve to narrate different stories in an organic unity (as Deleuze says in movement image) but this doesn't mean that this movie is more different than contemporary Hollywood blockbusters: it narrates an empty moralist tale in a visual perfection, but perhaps perfection is an enemy of the strong cinema.

Stories across the ages, linked through themes and idea, and bridged by the image of a rocking cradle. These are what punctuate Intolerance. It is clear that an incredible amount of effort was put into the construction of this movie, with its ambition in not only story, but sets. The 200 minute running time moves very quickly, maybe partially because the movie focuses on several short stories instead of one large one, but mostly because it is one of the most engaging silent films of all time.
