À quoi s’attendre
The film’s influential editing and spectacle were deployed in service of white-supremacist propaganda. Its formal importance and its real political harm must be studied together, not balanced as though one cancels the other.
Comment aborder le film
Do not use this as a casual first silent film. Read historical context before watching, break the long runtime into sections, and examine how point of view turns racist fabrication into suspense and rescue.
