Marguerite: Cows and chickens make better friends than I""ve ever met in Paris.When Baron de Varville arrives at the box after Marguerite and Prudence have left, he cannot be distracted from being "engaged" with Olympe.]Its small-scale, fragile and sensitive nature was a surprise to audiences, because this soft-focus, ethereal film was a sharp contrast to Griffith""s earlier epic films (all with Lillian Gish in varying roles) - the controversial blockbuster and monumentalThe Birth of a Nation (1915), the spectacularIntolerance (1916)and his extravagant World War I film shot on location in France and England,Hearts of the World (1918).Two shots are fired.The fugitive and the policeman successfully jump across a gap onto a high-angled, red-tiled, Spanish style tenement roof, but the third man doesn""t make the jump and is left clinging and dangling from a weakened gutter drain pipe by his fingertips.The next third and final chapter of the saga wasThe Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014).With an estimated production budget of $225 million, and box-office gross receipts of $258.4 million (domestic) and $958.4+ million (worldwide).This film was the # 2 ranked film in terms of revenue (domestic and worldwide) forThe Hobbit3-film rilogy franchise.
