FILE - This 1914 file photo shows a scene from D.W. Griffith's "Birth of a Nation" movie depicting Ku Klux Klan members riding horses against soldiers, filmed in the Hollywood section of Los Angeles. Based on Thomas Dixon's novel, "The Clansman," it was set in the American Civil War. Earlier films often lasted less than an hour and were completed within days. "Birth of a Nation" took six months to produce, had a running time of 195 minutes and employed hundreds of actors. In 1992, the Library of Congress added Griffith's work to the National Film Registry, calling it a "controversial, explicitly racist, but landmark American film masterpiece." (AP Photo)
