由D.W. 格里菲斯编剧、导演，是其最具创作野心的作品。影片由4段相隔数千年互不相关的故事连缀而成 ：《母与法》、《基督受难》、《圣巴多罗缪的屠杀》和《巴比伦的陷落》。故事虽不相关，但反映了一个共同的主题：祈求和平，反对党同伐异。格里菲斯描述他自己的构想：“四个大循环故事好像四条河流，最初是分散而平静地流动着，最后却汇合成一条强大汹涌的急流。
这部影片在电影语言上的历史贡献在于 ：4 段故事不是一个个单独展开，而是交替进行，十分大胆而又流畅地把时间相距甚远的事件联系在一起，平行交替叙述而造成逐渐紧张强烈的情绪而达到最高潮。影片在影像结构、叙事结构以及镜头运动、剪辑节奏上的创新对世界电影的艺术表现手法影响极大，被认为是最早的经典影片之一。1958年，在布鲁塞尔国际博览会上，它被评为电影史上12部最佳影片之一。
四个发生于不同历史时期，年代跨度超过2000年的故事组成了本片的故事情节。第一个故事叫做“母与法”。讲述20世纪初的加利福尼亚州，一位青年工人被人诬陷为杀人犯，被判处死刑。而他的妻子则必须在行刑之前找出真凶，营救她的丈夫。 第二个故事“耶稣受难”发生在公元27年的巴勒斯坦。耶稣被门徒出卖，受尽折磨后被钉死在十字架上。 第三个故事是“圣巴托罗缪大屠杀”，发生在公元1572年的法国巴黎。天主教徒发动了对新教徒的大屠杀。一对婚期在即的新教徒青年也遭遇不幸。 第四个故事是“巴比伦的陷落”：公元前539年的中东，巴比伦大祭司因为与王子巴尔撒尔的恩怨，竟然在波斯大军来攻之际打开城门，巴比伦古国从此灭亡。
This latest installment of Babylon 5 is in two parts: the first, is about an entity that has possessed a worker. It wants to be exorcised but Col.

Semiramis, a powerful and beautiful Assyrian queen, oversees the construction of the luxurious city of Babylon. She falls in love with Kir, a fallen prince turned into a slave who corresponds to her love. But a palace conspiracy will make the two lovers separate and confront each other.
在《党同伐异》票房收入相对较低之后，D.W.格里菲斯在三年后重新拍摄了他的史诗电影，将该片中交织的两个故事分别作为独立的影片发行，并增加了一些新的镜头。其中第一个是《巴比伦亡国记》，讲述了巴比伦王子贝尔沙撒与波斯大流士之间的冲突。
巴比伦人民为了自由而与巨人Goliath之战
In ancient Babylon, SEMIRAMIDE (Anderson) encourages her lover Assur (Ramey) to murder her husband, King Ninus. Her son, Ninius, disappears, believed dead, and Semiramide rules in her own right. 15 years later, as the opera opens, she is about to announce the name of her successor. Idreno (Olsen) and Assur are the leading candidates for the throne and the hand of Princess Azema (Shin), but Semiramide has taken a fancy to young Arsace (Horne), her victorious military leader who has been summoned back to Babylon. Only the high priest Oroe (Cheek) knows that Arsace is actually Ninius, spirited away to safety after the coup. As the queen announces Arsace as her successor, the ghost of her husband appears from his tomb, demanding that Arsace punish the late king’s murderers... Filmed at New York's Metropolitan Opera, John Copley's production of Rossini's last, longest and most elaborate dramatic opera brings together what many consider the definitive contemporary cast.

"No film may throw ridicule on any religious faith..." So began Article VIII of the Hollywood Production Code, a series of ethical guidelines that for forty years helped the motion picture industry produce many of the greatest and most family-friendly films in history. That was then, however, this is now. A revered "historical" movie quietly takes every opporturnity to lie and twist the facts in order to make Christians appear as backward, foolish hypocrites. An actress jumps at the chance to play a Christ-hating role, saying, "I'm an atheist, so it was a joy." One of Hollywood's most respected directors films a passion play written by a disciple of Friedrich Nietzsche, the father of the "God is dead" movement. Not surprisingly, the movie's Jesus helps crucify people and later confesses that satan is inside him. A media mogul states that "Christianity is a religion for losers."
