Disturbingly racist, sexist, and bias it's still a landmark film

Rating: 8/10 (9 December 2012)

The Birth of a Nation is hard to sit through to say the least(especially part 2)it sets up the KKK leader as it's protagonist, has constant blackfaces all over the place to the point that it's infuriating to watch, and even dips into Nazism as a main theme. Putting that beside though the first part of The Birth of a Nation is extremely well the devised and brilliantly put together. I really can't say much for the second part due to the over saturation of racism. This is a tremendous landmark in film making, if not the most important. If only the themes could have been changed this would probably be one of the greatest movies of all time. Unfortunately there is no way in hell I could EVER sit through another screening of this again.
