Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The first true film, a lavish Civil War epic in which Griffith virtually invented the basics of film grammar. 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 Klu Klux Klan. Still a rouser, and of great historical interest. Silent with music score. Battle scenes and reconstruction period recreated along with touching scenes of family reunion.
