Hell's Hinges 1916

The top 300 best silent era films are based on the votes on the silentera.com website. The list is not limited to features exclusively. True silent films (like City Lights) not made in the default silent cinema timeline (1891-1929) are also accepted. Films receiving votes must still exist somewhere and in some viewable form. We limit the list to films that were produced to be silent films exclusively (synchronized music tracks are acceptable, but part-talkies and talkies that have only survived as silents are out).

The National Film Registry is the United States National Film Preservation Board's selection of films for preservation in the Library of Congress. The Board was established in 1988. Each year, 25 "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant films" are preserved, to increase awareness for its preservation. To be eligible for inclusion, a film must be at least ten years old but it is not required to be feature-length, nor is it required to have been theatrically released.

Addresses the perennial appeal of the Western, exploring its 19th century popular culture, and its relationship to the economic structure of Hollywood. This work considers the defining features of the Western and traces its main cycles, from the epic Westerns of the 1920s and singing cowboys of the 1930s to the Spaghetti Westerns of the 1960s.

Movies and shows released from 1910-1919.

This is a loosely ranked list of all the films I've seen that are tagged with the "Action" genre. I'm a huge fan of the genre, enjoying it more than any other, and I wanted a way to document what I like and don't in the genre. Hence this list.

When I rate films, I rate based on my overall enjoyment of them, and not as examples of any particular genre. So the top portion of my list is a ranking of every film I've rated at least 8/10, but ranked specifically as Action movies. So a film like Harakiri (1962), which I find to be a flawless film, doesn't rise to the top, as it's not a great "Action Film" so it gets ranked lower.

After the ranked portion, I've grouped all subsequent ratings alphabetically. So all the films I rated 7/10 are grouped alphabetically, followed by the 6/10 rated films, and so on.
