In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The author of flashback and screen narrative can be ascribed to the 33 year old Griffith in this film. Not only has he created a vocabulary for backstory through editing, he has also given narrative a three-tiered structure taking it a stage further from theatre and literature into cinema. That's the significance of this film.
