As epic as they come–that Babylon set was nuts. While I wish this had been an hour shorter, I appreciated the rhythm and the movement of this movie. It felt symphonic to me: the steady bass line of the “Eternal Motherhood,” the different storylines being played like different instruments contributing to a common theme, and playing off of each other throughout to the crescendo of the final conclusion. When I read that Griffith didn’t intend for the film to be an apology for “Birth,” it struck me as a huge narcissistic reaction to criticism. (“I’m not racist, you’re racist.”) But ultimately here the filmmaking can’t be denied, and I’d include this over the former in any "Top X" list.
