Description:
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.

It seems like the liberation of slaves was little more than a handy, albeit costly, excuse for Lincoln's ambition to rule the South.

Finally, at last, a truthful movie. The bos and hos can't stand to finally learn the truth. Are we tired of hearing about "slavery" or not? Talk about a subject being worn out!!! The africoon language is based upon two words, "slavery" and "motherfucker". Learn these two words well and you can talk to them anywhere.

Great movie. The basics of its storyline are correct historically. The Left has rewritten history to vilify the South. The message here is no different from the views that Lincoln and Jefferson held, viz. slavery is immoral, but the races cannot interact as social equals.

I was astounded that every element I had ever seen in a Hollywood movie was present in this one. Considering it was made in 1915 that was surprising. I think it was Napoleon that said, "there is nothing new under the sun." Still, I wonder if that says something about contemporary Hollywood.

I'll I'm saying is you should clairfy your statements. What you probably mean when you say Americans, was in fact, the English. Most of the slaves were here by the begining of the Revolution. The vast majority of slaves went to the Caribbean and South America. North America (future United States) imported the least amount of all the regions. So there were many more nations involved in what you generalize as "American".

I know you said all races are guilty. What I'm saying is, how and why should Griffith say all races are guilty when he was focused on such a limited time period, the Civil War and Reconstruction? Again we agree that Griffith portrayed blacks in a bad light, but your simplistic generlizations about history are getting annoying. How could Americans import slaves after 1808 when it was closed and illegal? And how could they before 1776 when the United States was non-existent?

Look, the International Slave trade was closed in 1808, that is a fact! So, Americans imported slaves from 1776-1808, only 32 years. Before then, it was the ENGLISH who brought them over because there was no such thing as "Americans". You generlized and said it was Americans. What about the Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, and the French?? Why do you think it was only "Americans"?

I never said that Griffith mentioned all races are guilty. In fact he was doing the exact opposite. Griffith made it seem as if blacks were the only ones guilty. I said that all races are guilty.
