The Birth of a Nation (1915,  Unrated)
The Birth of a Nation
This will divide lots of viewers and still,a great amount of population will rise to the fact of political mendacity.Which is correct,no doubt about this.I really want to know however if all of the "audience" praising Scarface (De Palma's mediocrity) and Forest Gump (Zemeckis' sobbing flick) can realize the racist message in those films and not just in Birth of a Nation e.g. Puerto Ricans and low I.Q. people.Strange feeling,isn't it?Condemn the quality of a movie first and then we discuss the f***** political context!
2
The Gold Rush (1925,  Unrated)

Le Voyage dans la lune (A Trip to the Moon) (1902,  Unrated)
Le Voyage dans la lune (A Trip to the Moon)
A delight and I would easily enjoy it for a second and twenty-second time.Along with Porter's western short,these excellent pieces of art are proof of the first masterpieces in movie history.The full moon however seemed a bit creepy with the giant eyeball!
6
Modern Times (1936,  Unrated)
7
Metropolis (1927,  Unrated)
8
Intolerance (1916,  Unrated)
Intolerance
Redemption for Griffith came with an astonishing work of art.The Birth of an Empire it should be alternatively nicknamed,the second title of Love's persistence is the dark sheet of pessimism,4 eras of desperation and at the same time,visionary trembling.Directorial zeal or a capitalist engrossment?You decide...

This is archive,simple tale but imagine now.In the sunrise of the 20th century a new technique of film-making appeared and western came like a landslide to rule the American urban "hood".

Window Water Baby Moving
Where the lines of chronicling an event,of a documentary and of a short tale are merging into perfection...
24
The Adventures of Prince Achmed (1926,  Unrated)
The Adventures of Prince Achmed
A criminally underappreciated animation film,the beloved template of heroes,chivalry,mythical delights made by Reiniger's magic wand is more than just a bargain.Sheer enthusiasm for an hour,this classic visual landscape fills the screen with a literally poetic ambrosia.
