The film follows the pirate's exploits staging new crimes to pin on the detective while disguised as a young nobleman, using her wits and various gadgets to maintain stay just one step ahead of the investigator – all while courting his sister Leonora (played by Cristina Ruspoli) in disguise. FILIBUS is often cited as an early pioneer of feminist fiction as well as queer representation, cross-dressing, genderfluidity, and science fiction.

This week, Zach travels back to 1915 and the silent film that started the epic - D.W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation Nearly 100 years after its initial release, THE BIRTH OF A NATION remains one of the most controversial films ever made and a landmark achievement in film history that continues to fascinate and enrage audiences. It is the epic story of two families, one northern and one southern, during and after the Civil War. D. W. Griffith's masterful direction combines brilliant battle scenes and tender romance with a vicious portrayal of African-Americans. It was the greatest feature-length blockbuster yet to be produced in the United States and the first to be shown in the White House. After seeing it, President Woodrow Wilson remarked it was ''like writing history with lightning!'' However flawed, the film made history. In cities and states across the country, it energized the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), which tried to have the film banned and censored. The film also inspired African Americans to move into filmmaking as a way to offer alternative images and stories. This is a newly mastered (in 2011) version of the film in 1080p High Definitionfrom archival 35mm elements. It includes new music by the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra (2011). strong>Show your thanks to Major Spoilers for this episode by becoming a Major Spoilers VIP.
