«Intolerance» is the silent movie directed by D.W. Griffith (1916), on DVD.
«Intolerance» interweaves four stories separated by centuries: the fall of Babylon, the passion of Christ, the St Bartholomew's Day massacre and a contemporary workers' strike, united by the image of a rocking cradle. D.W. Griffith contrasts violence and fanaticism with the power of love, in a movie that marked a milestone of silent cinema.
D.W. Griffith conceived the project as «the struggle of love through the ages»; the superproduction left him indebted to creditors for life.
For fans of silent movies and classics that have influenced generations of filmmakers.
