With a subtitle like "Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages" you know you're in for something huge. This week Jackie and Greg sit down with D. W. Griffith’s silent epic from 1916. Topics of discussion include the film’s massive scope, Carl Davis’ rousing score, how the theme of intolerance isn’t as well integrated as Griffith intended, the film’s immersive intertitles, and plenty of waxing over the famous Babylon set. Ah, the extent someone will go to prove they're not a racist. Tune in and join them as they tackle one of Hollywood's most monumental movies.
