America (1924)

D. W Griffith made about 535 movies (98% of them were short films) in the early 1900s.  He directed the Birth of a Nation, Intollerance, Abraham Lincoln, among others.  This is a look at the Revolutionary War through the stories of Rebels and English Loyalists.  As I was watching this movie I kept thinking about the Last of the Mohechans.  I am going to try and watch all of these movies, grant it most of them are two minutes or less in length, but when you get to the feature length movies they are mostly over 2 hours long.
