"Intolerance" is D.W. Griffith's masterpiece, and one of the greatest films ever made. It is a film of enormous breadth, daring, and imagination, and the result is one of the most poignant adventures stories ever to be told in cinema. The sets are awe inspiring, the acting first-rate, and the stories that intertwine are impressive each in their own right, and magnificent when combined. It is hard to imagine a film which combines such a wide expansive of time, elaborate sets, stunning cinematography, a direct and important message, and lasting dramatic tension. Yet this is exactly what "Intolerance" does.
