EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the climactic scene of the modern story in D. W. Griffith's groundbreaking silent film, "Intolerance" released in 1916. The image showcases a tense moment filled with anticipation and drama. In this powerful scene, we see an American priest standing amidst a crowd of spectators, all eagerly awaiting the outcome of a prisoner's fate. The atmosphere is charged with emotion as the executioner prepares to carry out his grim duty on the gallows. This snapshot freezes time and allows us to witness this pivotal moment in cinematic history. "Intolerance" was a pioneering film that explored themes of prejudice, injustice, and social inequality across four different historical periods. Directed by D. W. Griffith, it remains one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken in early cinema. The Granger Collection has expertly preserved this piece of art from their extensive archives. It serves as a reminder not only of America's cinematic heritage but also its ongoing struggle for tolerance and equality throughout history. This print is an invaluable piece for any film enthusiast or historian seeking to delve into the rich tapestry of early silent movies. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate audiences even after more than a century since its release.
