Leave your thoughts about D.W. Griffith: Father of Film.
| User Reviewvictor lThis is one of the most significant documentaries ever made on a Hollywood artist, it's interesting, the interviews are invaluable, the review on Griffith's career is very profound and complete, it isn't boring at all despite it's 2 and a half hours long. You end up admiring this man for his art and vision of industry, racism is not admirable, of course but that shouldn't decrease merits to his many contributions and qualities. This man was the master that made american movies the #1 across the world. |
| User ReviewWilliam DThis documentary is a great way to learn about D.W. Griffith, the father of American film. His most commercially successful film, "Birth of a Nation," was a reprehensible attack on black folks and a disgusting celebration of the Ku Klux Klan. But Griffith made 100 other films, none of which have such retrograde content. There is no doubt that he was a cinematic genius, and countless people followed in his footsteps. If you are looking to expand your knowledge of early film, this three-hour documentary is highly recommended. (It is available on one disc from Netflix.) |
