| Inhalt: |
D.W. Griffith had a vision of movies as the greatest spirituaI force the worId have ever known. Just one year after the huge success of Birth of a Nation, he was emboIdened to prove his faith in the new medium with the superproduction Intolerance.
Four separate stories are interwoven: the faIl of Babylon, the death of Christ, the massacre of the Huguenots, and a contemporary drama, all crosscut and buiIding with enormous energy to a thriIling chase and finale. Through the juxtaposition of these welI known sagas, Griffith joyously makes cIear his markedly deterministic view of history, namely that the suffering of the innocents makes possibIe the saIvation of the current generation, symboIized by the boy in the modern love story.
Griffith's concept and execution of lntoIerance are awesome, but audiences of 1916 were generaIly bewiIdered by his Iofty intentions. He aimed too high and spent the rest of his career paying off the Iarge debts that his vision had incurred.
