The oldest libertarian film listed on missliberty.com, D.W. Griffith’s silent film masterpiece, Intolerance, was made in 1916. One hundred years later its message of warning against intolerance and meddling still rings true. Per the missliberty.com review, “The four stories depicted here are wide-ranging. In the first, a group of modern busybodies start a ‘reform movement’ in which they create laws to ban dancing, drinking, and other amusements. They end up destroying the lives of everyone they touch. In the second, in old Jerusalem, Jesus, ‘the greatest enemy of intolerance,’ defends a woman convicted of adultery by telling those who are without sin to cast the first stone. In the third, religious intolerance in sixteenth century Paris leads to the extermination of the Huguenots. In the fourth, in old Babylon, we see the suffering caused when abuse of power leads to unnecessary war and bloodshed.” National Review just published a review of Intolerance, calling it “the greatest movie ever made.”
