The Sheik 1921

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).

A collection from various "Best of" and "Must watch" lists, plus others that mark important milestones or points of history in film or otherwise; feature notable actors, directors, etc.; or that I just personally thought sounded interesting.

.A dizzy, giddy time of petting parties, bootleg gin, jazz, and flappers. When coffee and movie tickets cost a dime, trolley rides cost a nickel (the same as hot dogs or hamburgers), newspapers cost two cents... and sliced bread was considered the greatest invention ever.
