Coming back to Griffith, in Intolerance we have a lot of such
relations.
I would look at Pound's Cantos thus:
There are 'actions', being only things that count. And all of them
happen in the world of no time, simultaneously. So instead of looking
at linear history we look at the way men's actions change. Thus
history almost perishes and we look at the way men are influenced by
the same gods in all times and turn to this god or to another (god
being equal to ideogram) and serve them in different ways.
And almost the same things I find in Intolerance (of which I've seen
only fragments). Actions, ideograms, relations being that which makes
film. And I know no other film where unity of ideogram plays such a
role as in Intolerance. All this still being very simple.
