April 1, 2025… #movieoftheday is Intolerance (full movie) (1916).
 
“Intolerance is a 1916 American anthology, silent film directed by D. W. Griffith . Subtitled as Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages and A Sun-Play of the Ages , the three-and-a-half-hour epic intercuts four parallel storylines, each separated by several centuries: first, a contemporary melodrama of crime and redemption; second, a Biblical story: Christ 's mission and death; third, a French story: the events surrounding the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre of 1572; and fourth, a Babylonian story: the fall of the Babylonian Empire to Persia in 539 BC. Each story had its own distinctive color tint in the original print. The scenes are linked by shots of a figure representing Eternal Motherhood, rocking a cradle.
 
“Griffith chose to explore the theme of intolerance partly in response to his previous film The Birth of a Nation (1915) being derided by the NAACP and others for perpetuating and supporting racial stereotypes and glorifying the Ku Klux Klan . Intolerance was not, however, an apology, as Griffith felt he had nothing for which to apologize; in numerous interviews, Griffith made clear the film was a rebuttal to his critics and he felt that they were, in fact, the intolerant ones. In the years following its release, Intolerance strongly influenced European film movements and is regarded as one of the most influential films of the silent era. In 1958, the film was voted number 7 in the World Expo film poll . In 1989, it was one of the first films to be selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry .” - more at Wikipedia

March 31, 2025… #movieoftheday is The Birth of a Nation (full movie) (1915).
 
“The Birth of a Nation  is a 1915 American silent, epic, drama film directed by  D. W. Griffith  and starring  Lillian Gish . The screenplay is adapted from  Thomas Dixon Jr. 's 1905 novel and play  The Clansman . Griffith co-wrote the screenplay with  Frank E. Woods  and produced the film with  Harry Aitken .
 
“The Birth of a Nation  is a landmark of film history, lauded for its technical virtuosity. It was the first non-serial American 12-reel film ever made Its plot, part fiction and part history, chronicles the  assassination of Abraham Lincoln  by  John Wilkes Booth  and the relationship of two families in the  Civil War  and  Reconstruction  eras over the course of several years — the pro- Union  ( Northern ) Stonemans and the pro- Confederacy  ( Southern ) Camerons. It was originally shown in two parts, sparated by an intermission, and was the first American-made film to have a musical score for an orchestra. It helped to pioneer  closeups  and  fadeouts and includes a carefully staged battle sequence with hundreds of extras made to look like thousands. It came with a 13-page  Souvenir Program.  It was the first motion picture to be screened inside the  White House , viewed there by President  Woodrow Wilson , his family and members of his cabinet.
 
“The film was controversial even before its release and it has remained so ever since; it has been called "the most controversial film ever made in the United States,"  and "the most reprehensibly racist film in Hollywood history." The film has been denounced for its racist depiction of  African Americans  The film portrays its black characters (many of whom are played by white actors in  blackface ) as unintelligent and sexually aggressive toward white women. The  Ku Klux Klan  (KKK), a white supremacist hate group, is portrayed as a heroic force that protects white women and maintains  white supremacy .
 
“Popular among white audiences nationwide upon its release, the film's success was both a consequence of and a contributor to racial segregation throughout the U.S.  In response to the film's depictions of black people and Civil War history, African Americans across the U.S. organized and protested. In  Boston  and other localities, black leaders and the  NAACP  spearheaded an unsuccessful campaign to have it banned on the basis that it inflamed racial tensions and could incite violence. It was also denied release in the state of Ohio and the cities of Chicago, Denver, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Minneapolis. Griffith's indignation at efforts to censor or ban the film motivated him to produce  Intolerance  the following year.
 
“Despite its divisiveness,  The Birth of a Nation  was a massive commercial success across the nation—grossing far more than any previous motion picture—and it profoundly influenced both the film industry and American culture. Adjusted for inflation, the film remains one of the highest-grossing films ever made. It has been acknowledged as an inspiration for  the rebirth of the Ku Klux Klan , only a few months after its release. In 1992, the  Library of Congress  deemed the film "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" and selected it for preservation in the  National Film Registry . - more at Wikipedia

March 26, 2025… #movieoftheday is The Grapes of Wrath (full movie) (1940).
 
“The Grapes of Wrath is an American realist novel written by John Steinbeck and published in 1939. The book won the National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize for fiction, and it was cited prominently when Steinbeck was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1962.
 
“Set during the Great Depression , the novel focuses on the Joads, a poor family of tenant farmers driven from their Oklahoma home by drought, economic hardship, agricultural industry changes and bank foreclosures forcing tenant farmers out of work. Due to their nearly hopeless situation, and in part because they are trapped in the Dust Bowl , the Joads set out for California on the " mother road ," along with thousands of other " Okies " seeking jobs, land, dignity and a future.
 
“The Grapes of Wrath is frequently read in American high school and college literature classes due to its historical context and enduring legacy.

"A Hollywood film version, starring Henry Fonda as Tom Joad and directed by John Ford , was released in 1940… The first part of the film version follows the book fairly accurately. However, the second half and particularly the ending differ significantly from the book. John Springer, author of The Fondas (Citadel, 1973), said of Henry Fonda and his role in The Grapes of Wrath : "The Great American Novel made one of the few enduring Great American Motion Pictures." - more at Wikipedia
