Wonderful character development!

Such a frustrating disappointment

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The 33 year old Griffith was well on his way using close-ups and crosscutting in this film. By this stage he had created the discipline of editing for all subsequent editors (like George Tomasini - North by Northwest) to follow.
