First Sequel Ever Made

A random fact: The Fall of a Nation, a 1916 film directed by Thomas F. Dixon, Jr., was cinema’s first sequel ever. It was a follow up to the film, conversely titled The Birth of a Nation. Both of these films unfortunately glorify the KKK, despite the notariety of being such landmarks in cinematic history.

    “DJ Spooky’s Rebirth of a Nation is a film project based on a remix of D.W. Griffith’s infamous 1915 film Birth of a Nation.”
