Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages 1916 and A Sun-Play of the Ages is DW Griffith's epic historical drama that stands for decades, and is one of the films that made modern cinema. In this video analyses how pioneering editing techniques such as crosscutting, dissolves, and match on action were used alongside close-up shots and high budget sets to make the first blockbuster in Hollywood. A great case study for film historians.

David here from Sebring Florida and I been a movie buff for over fifty years and I thought you gave it a fantastic review! I just watched it on Dvd and was disappointed in the quality of the print I just found out that You Tube has a free restored edition and I will be watching that soon. All the best! And see you at the movies! 🎥
Cloud Atlas is from 2012. The book version came out in 2004.
When I spotted that typo, I was so angry at myself!
@@TheMediaInsiderIt’s not too late to correct it and re-upload it!
Epic comeback from the media insider
Wait he uploaded a week ago
:( I'm a fake fan
Lots more to come
I just watched Intolerance. Thought it was a lot to take in. I could understand the modern plotline, and it was the predominant one, but otherwise I was sort of lost by the end. I was looking for a TH-cam video to help explain what was happening in the other stories individually and this is one of the only search results I guess I will have to research all the historical events separately.
"He directed from his head"
So i watched the movie a couple days ago and it was too much for me. I mean i bow before the influence it had on movies, but god. It felt like Griffith wanted to film 4 movies, but they did not allowed him, so he smashed everything into one... 😅
Interesting video...Was that the film set, forgotten long ago and then uncovered beneath the sand in California in the 21st century and then mistaken for something real and puzzling?
that would've been so cool. Unfortunately it was all destroyed
You're thinking of Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments" 1923, which was filmed at the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes located north of Santa Barbara County
This place was chosen because of its similarity to the Egyptian desert.
In the ensuing years the sets were covered by the dunes.
In 2012 a well preserved sphinx was found and recovered.
The film location was originally chosen because its immense sand dunes provided a superficial resemblance to the Egyptian desert.
Thank you for this video. So insightful😊🙏❣
Babylon reconstruction is still amazing
Hi there! I have a request for you. could you please made a video about analysis of movies set in Victorian era like Ethan Frome. it would be appropriate that you did it. thanks a lot.
I'll check it out but that's not really my area of expertise
he musta felt cold as hell dropping a movie called "intolerance" a few years after one of the most racist movies known to history
you should have showed us your minecraft worlds at the BFI
Next time, I promise!
It seems This movie predicted prohibition.

Good idea - look at how IMAX and colour changed the audiences experience
Oh - I thought you were going to talk about Colin McKenzie's 'Salome' ☹️😋
Never seen it - should I add it to my 'SHAME ON YOU' list of films I really should have seen?
D.W Grittith was a racist bastard but MY GOD did he know how to make movies...before almost anybody else did.
5:30 King Kong was directed by Peter Jackson not James Cameron.
Ahhhhh typo, I hate it when that happens!!
@@TheMediaInsider lol it’s okay, happens to the best of us, I still really love this video.
i can see how this film was a great film and im keen to watch it.. for me, however, i would hardly call titanic or avatar good let alone great..
i fell asleep in both LOTRs 1 and 2.. there was no point to watch three..
the beginning of woke Hollywood was visible in all of these films.. i think id rather watch an oldie over ANY modern film ..
Oppenheimer? Killers of the flower moon?
LOTR is a fabulous film trilogy.
Hi i was at your talk at the BSL why did you not show us the minecraft worlds?
Because it's overwhelmingly underwhelming!
Actually I find it so sad. We almost didn't cinematographically evolve for more than one hundred year.
It must have been editing though to be there the everything was new and undiscovered
@@TheMediaInsider editing = exciting.
Intolerance is similar to but better than Birth of a Nation (1915), maybe not as exciting but so much easier to watch without the unconscious and implicit racism of the older film.
