Some resources declare that The Big Parade superseded The Birth of a Nation as maximum-grossing movie, inevitably remaining changed by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which in flip was promptly usurped by Gone with the Wind. Gone with the Wind-1st released in 1939-is typically considered to be the most successful film, with Guinness World Records in 2014 estimating its altered world gross at $3.4 billion.
