The Birth of a Nation (1915, Unrated)
I never want to see this movie again. It tells a story for what felt like 4 hours (and I bet it was close)that could have been done in half the time. The storytelling was off seeing as it puts the end of the civil war around the middle of the film which would normally serve as a climax. If D.W. actually believed in what he created I hope he got what was coming to him. This movie needs a very discrediting parody to do it in. I usually base my rating with the consideration of the time, however, this movie does not deserve the priviledge. |
