INTOLERANCE

Spurred on by the enormous success of THE BIRTH OF A NATION, Griffith took as his new theme intolerance through the ages. Interweaving a modern story of social unrest with the crucifixion, the massacre of the Huguenots and the fall of Babylon, he produced this mighty epic. The ambition of his vision was matched by the scale of the undertaking, and the end result, seen in this colour print from nitrate materials, remains unique.
