The birth of a nation, the birth of a ball of shit

First of all, I recommend my own work, which was created in response to something evil like this one.

The Legend of American Heroes: The Second Revolutionary War


Lost Cause

morality of history


a task for the public

The 1914 American Civil War silent film The Birth of a Nation must be watched. If the Birth of a Nation is understood as the Birth of an Evil Empire of Slavery (1861), then we can also say that this is the birth of a shit ball.

Although this is a huge ball of shit, eating it does not mean you like it. I suggest eating it several times, and then take a piece of paper while eating. The paper is not for wiping your mouth, but for you to list the history inside. Where the facts do not match, after all, the director advertises that he is talking about historical facts, otherwise we would not be able to compete with the director in this regard.

For example, a noble abolitionist who becomes a slut who wants to have sex with beautiful girls all day long?

For example, the first black congressmen to eat chicken legs while picking their feet in Congress?

The KKK was formed to protect women from good families?

If you can find all the non-historical bits and take them out of this movie, you'll find that this giant shitball becomes a hollow shitball with nothing but a dry layer of shit on the outside. No more.

unexpected surprise

I'm surprised I'm the first person here to give a one star negative review. If I could choose, I would give this movie a fair zero or even a minus 120,000.

No one can and should not use artistic creation or any reason as an excuse to fabricate some false things to confuse people and misunderstand history. People should not confuse the difference between historical facts and falsification. Bridging the big difference. When someone tries to blur the difference between the two, even if he doesn't know the difference, I'm adamantly opposed and corrected.

This movie can get such a high score, just like the reason why " Lincoln " only has more than 7 points, the problem lies in the lack of wisdom, vulgar taste, and even moral corruption of some people. A country is born from the wrong starting point, and everything in it is clumsy and intolerable. Some people think that what kind of shooting method Griffith created in this film, what is the originator of feature films, so he should give high marks? Does creating a certain shooting method mean that a movie is a good movie? Doesn't that just show what technique he created, that's all. Shouldn't the filming technique serve the subject of the film, and the subject of the film should not be judged morally? Could it be that a piece of garbage can be placed in the Hall of Honor just because it has been on the ground for a long time?

The director of Lincoln's biography should not have created any new methods. The excellence of this film is no longer needed. Comparing it with the birth of a country, it can even show the huge gap between the two that cannot be ignored. The critics gave wrong evaluations of Lincoln's biography and the birth of a nation, not only because of ignorance and prejudice, but also because of lack of conscience.

The evaluation of a work must not only be based on artistic techniques, but first and foremost on morality. There is no morality, only skill, and the result can only be a victory for evil, a victory for the Nazis.

fair evaluation

I haven't seen a second movie that turns black and white to the extreme. You're asking how to reverse black and white, and that's what I'm afraid of, I'm just afraid that when you eat this shit, you don't even know you're eating shit, ignorant, it is. Not to mention the task I gave you: take a notebook and record all the places where black and white are reversed one by one. Excuse me, if you don't know the historical facts at all, how do you know how to reverse black and white?

From the point of view of tyranny and ruthlessness, the tyrannical and ruthless are obviously slavery minions, but Mr. Griffith frantically used his "superior camera language" to show the audience "a rogue northern white officer leads a group of chimpanzees in The "true" history of robbery, rape and murder in the South.

With this film, Griffith's name deserves to be nailed to the pillar of shame until the end of the universe.

This reminds me of the real history that unfolds in the Black Klankers: contemporary KKK mad dogs watch this shitball as a religious relic over and over again. Black Klankers is a good movie, but when will we see a diamond ball that shines brighter than Lincoln, The Rage of Chains, and Twelve Years a Slave?

In the end, my conclusion is that one can brag about what cinematography technique a director has created (note, not a movie, it must be a person who created the technique), but at the same time it does not prevent him from giving his work zero points, I think, for a work The evaluation of the people must be above all morality and conscience.
