Filmtip: Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages

Film van D.W. Griffith maandag 26 januari van 23:25 tot 2:25 uur te zien op ARTE.

Steven D. Greydanus: Intolerance is a grandiose composite epic, interweaving four separate morality plays from different eras and settings, from 20th-century America (the "Modern Story") to Old Testament times (the "Babylonian Story"). Rounding out the four are a brief survey of the life and death of Christ (the "Galilean Story" [sic; most of it is set in Judea, not Galilee]) and events from the 16th-century persecution and massacre of Huguenot Protestants under the Medicis, including the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre (the "French Story").
