Intolerance/YMMV
- Anvilicious: This film is made of Moral-Anvil.
- Author's Saving Throw: For The Birth of a Nation
- The Atoner: Griffith, possibly.
- Funny Aneurysm Moment: Griffith attempted to end the film on a glorious note with a special-effects shot of an immense cross of light appearing in the sky. Many contemporary viewers mistake this image for an atomic explosion.
- Vindicated by History: The film was such a failure at the box office that it bankrupted Griffith's studio. Today, it's considered to by some to be one of the greatest silent films.
