Title: Silly
Review: I can't decide which is more preposterous, D.W. Griffith or his persistent substantial reputation. Obviously, no one has bothered to look at his films, otherwise their ridiculous 19th-centuiry theater mentality would be universally reviled. Birth of a Nation couldn't be shown to a modern audience without several provisos. Otherwise it would quickly provoke a race riot. And it's interesting how quickly the much-touted accomplishments of Griffith were surpassed by his contemporaries. By the time he made America, he had been left so far behind by other filmmakers that he began his famous slide into well-deserved obscurity.
