   內 容 簡 介
Two brothers, Phil and Ted Stoneman, visit their friends in Piedmont, South Carolina: the family Cameron. This friendship is affected by the Civil War, as the Stonemans and the Camerons must join up opposite armies. The consequences of the War in their lives are shown in connection to major historical events, like the development of the Civil War itself, Lincoln's assassination, and the birth of the Ku Klux Klan.

   評 論
D.W. Griffith was obviously a brilliant man. This was the first movie ever to have been filmed in more than one place. Movies before this had a camera set up in one location and that movie was based around that one scene.

Considering when The Birth Of A Nation was made and considering what came before, this is one of if not the greatest film ever made. It may not conform to the modern view of race relations. Nevertheless, it is an unforgitable viewing experience. A must see for any serious film historian.

A Birth of a Nation should be looked upon as a historical significance rather than a "racist movie".
