Here it is! Its an episode and a subject that has been a long time coming, and it's one that is less important then people used to think, though perhaps a little more important than some people say it is now. D. W. Griffith was a filmmaker who invented nothing, innovated on much, and influenced many (including influencing people to commit acts of viscous evil and pernicious violence). In today's episode, we cover his early life and career, and talk about some of the movies that would lead him to making The Birth of a Nation . You can learn more about some of Griffith's movies in Episode 13, 15, and 16a of this show. If you would like to email me, you can do so at historyoffilmpodcast@gmail.com. I hope you enjoy thew show! -Jake Support the show
