Babylon in Hollywood

2020 13 min

Overview

The Babylonian sets constructed in Hollywood for David W. Griffith’s 1916 film Intolerance immediately became part of cinematic folklore. They were over 40 metres high, 60 metres wide and 120 metres in depth, and the precision of the architectural details displays a maniacal attention to documentary-like accuracy.
