more than just history

The exaggerated movements and expressions are made up of short shots. Griffith seldom uses the moving shots created by the Brighton School and the method of switching shooting angles for the same object. It

can be imagined that this film is far less popular than "The Birth of a Nation". The reason is that most people like drama films that seem to be close to life but are ideal enough to make people want to criticize them, but it is difficult to look directly at the naked ugliness and naked helplessness in life. The difference between commercial films and art films that is often analyzed is probably like this. It

's a well-deserved good movie even now.

War may be one person or group depriving another person or group of rights for their own selfish interests. It's

unbearable Unfortunately, society is like this.

Perfect love shall bring peace forevermore.

    The decision to watch this film until now is naturally correct. Griffith's scene scheduling is indeed a well-deserved master, but in terms of concept, if you remove the Medici French Massacre, the Jesus part will deepen and metamorphose to echo. The setting of redemption at the end of the film should be able to achieve better results. After all, the story of the little cutie and the young man is too orthodox, and the Babylonian epic has already included two levels of Medici. Except for the beginning of the palace scene, there is no bright spot.

    It is also a voluntary brush. Literature, drama and religion had a profound influence on early cinema. Much like the Chinese Zhanghui-style legends, several stories talk about one theme. But people are awesome, and they can edit in parallel, jump back and forth in time and space (fortunately, I didn't actually shoot through time...), and use images as text to write articles. In the silent film era, the character cards were really long and the stories were mediocre. Moving the camera to shoot the magnificent group dance of the Babylonian stairs is really cool. "Today is like yesterday, the cycle is endless. The cradle is shaking, bringing the same passion, the same joys and sorrows to mankind." What a wonderful word.
