Wikipedia
A number of film adaptations of Uncle Tom's Cabin have been made over the years. Most of these movies were created during the silent film era (with Uncle Tom's Cabin being the most-filmed story of that time period). Since the 1930s, Hollywood studios have considered the story too controversial for another adaptation (although one foreign film and a made-for-TV movie have been created). Characters, themes and plots from Uncle Tom's Cabin have also influenced a large number of other movies, including Birth of a Nation (1915), while also inspiring numerous animated cartoons.
