@irynazhyla6063at :40 I know it's spelled Maria, but it's pronounced Black Mariah.
@firehorse2019i love that alfred hitchcock framed his own self looking like a “dirty old man”
@zacharyj5932Babylon
@salehalhussaini420To think that old ruins would not be fixed up that glass would be broken still bent that would have to be replaced on a building that survived a flood caused by the Creator to get rid of all the abominable flesh mud flood! That's for unknowing teenagers how about the flood of Noah out of the scriptures of old remember the whole earth flesh was corrupt look at the statues look at the art it was the time of Narnia for crying out loud!
@marcodeyahvillegas5354Very informative video but we can’t forget Louis Le Prince. He predated Edison by 6 years.
@foxesofautumnWow! The history and significance of silent cinema in eight minutes and reduced to Porter, Griffith, and Eisenstein. No oversimplification or dumbing down here! Now I'm sorry I read all those books and watched all those other worthless silent films that aren't Birth of a Nation or Battleship Potemkin.
@suspiriorumNobody can ever take the power away from The Birth of a Nation. You dont have to like it, but its power will live on no matter what
@Dante-bx6ejHugo came out in 2011
@MaddalonefarmsLove it! My channel is also about silent films, more specifically silent comedy movies from Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton and the other silent comedy genius. Cheers!
@publicdomaincomedyclassics866great video
@carlostorres656Birth of A Nation was controversial yes, but so were/are all the marxist-bolshevik propaganda films, at least 4 or 5 of which are frequently rated among the top 100 ''best silent films''. Why? While these propaganda films were made and shown, the bolshevik regimes had murdered, were murdering and would go on to murder tens of millions of Russians and Ukrainian people - not a peep from the film critics and historians on this horrific period in history.
@kenlee1416Huh. Not a mention of Alice Guy Blache. I’m confused. And it’s as it American cinema was all that there was. Incredibly incomplete and misleading.
@beejlsLove this, its chill, relaxing, and explaining what I want to know. Thanks dude
@deadkittie4158You edited out the famous scene from the Great Train Robbery where the man shoots at the camera... People in theatres actually DUCKED! It was absolutely novel.
