Uncle Tom's Cabin : An earnest attempt to depict the harsh realities of slavery while lamenting the passage of the idealized South, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is an extravagant historical drama and, at a cost of $1.8 million, was one of the most expensive films of the silent era.

In the course of her Dickensian struggles, she experiences a side of indentured servitude beyond her worst fears, culminating in her arrival at the swampy lair of the murderous Simon Legree (George Siegmann). but the most memorable sequence by far, is Eliza's flight to freedom across a treacherous ice floe (a staple of the many stage productions, which D.W. Griffith shamelessly bo...

Burn! (Full Frame) : A Caribbean island in the mid-1800's. Nature has made it a paradise; man has made it a hell. Slaves on vast Portuguese sugar plantations are ready to turn their misery into rebellion - and the British are ready to provide the spark. They send agent William Walker (Marlon Brando) on a devious three-part mission: trick the slaves into revolt, grab the sugar trade for England...then return the slaves to servitude. Gillo Pontecorvo, the acclaimed director of "The Battle Of Algiers," explores colonialism and insurrection in the searing epic "Burn!" Both visually and narratively stunning, "Burn!" glows with the fires of Pontecorvo's unique filmmaking genius. Genius is also evident in Brando's complex, intelligent portrayal of a man who is both gentleman and scoundrel, revolutionary and colonialist. And Ennio Morricone's ("The Untouchables," "The Mission") haunting music memorably underscores the almost overwhelmingly powerful story.
