SUMMARY:Film: Rebirth of a Nation
DESCRIPTION:<p>Experimental hip-hop musician and multimedia artist DJ Spooky (Paul D. Miller) created this "cinematic remix" that analyzes and deconstructs D.W. Griffith's 1915 classic-but-racist epic film, <em>The Birth of a Nation</em>. Direction, music and commentary by DJ Spooky, with performance by SF's Kronos String Quartet.</p>

<p>"Applying 'turntablist' techniques to cinema, Miller&rsquo;s ambitious <em>Rebirth of a Nation</em> extends beyond the original&rsquo;s racial implications to highlight how Griffith&rsquo;s film defined the parameters of propaganda in moving images."&nbsp; &mdash; ArtForum</p>

<p>NR, 100 min., 2007. Intertitles for the Griffith source material throughout, but closed captions (CC) unavailable for Miller's spoken commentary.</p>
