The last show of the 19th Shanghai International Film Festival, the great "Party to Fight Differing", the audio-visual language is convincing, and the parallel and intersecting narratives are fully integrated. Another commentary on war and peace, siege towers on the battlefield, guillotine in times of peace. Blood no longer flows naked on the city gates and streets. When everything shows that justice is legal and hazy, only the crows in the morning are watching the people who died on the guillotine last night. Not only can the machine of desire not be destroyed, but it will become more and more complex and credible, becoming a more progressive machine in the form of serving man, more complex, progressive, advanced, and more dangerous. Once paralyzed by the laziness brought about by the system and give up fraternity, thinking and inheritance, people will become part of the machine. Not every time the car catches up with the train, victory in the cracks of the system is beautiful and fragile. If you have to criticize this movie, it can only be that the beautiful and direct appeal at the end just lost to the idealized shortcut.

It was normal for the audience to not see it more than a hundred years ago. It cost more than two million yuan, but now it still looks majestic and epic. After the film, Griffith was in debt for the rest of his life.

It took a lot of time for a dull movie, but I finally finished watching it. The plot was relatively fragmented, and the first half was not very coherent. If Citizen Kane's expenses have bankrupted the producer, this is The cost of a film may be more; such a large scene, so many people, it is really too much investment; like other silent films, the action of the performance is too exaggerated, after all, there are intermittent subtitles.
