The 10 Best Silent Films Worth Watching If You've Never Seen a Silent Film Before (Collider)

"Approaching silent films can be difficult. They're old, often slow-paced by today's standards, usually have some over-the-top acting, and they, of course, require more attention, given that none of the film's information gets delivered through dialogue. These are all obstacles that can turn potential newcomers off silent cinema, but the good news is that not all cinema made before the advent of "talkies" is impenetrable by newcomers. Thankfully, many are approachable and easy to enjoy, even if you've never seen a silent film before. By no means are these the only great silent films, and they may not even be the best, but they are the easiest to get into. Any newcomer to this style of cinema could do a lot worse than giving one of the films on this list a shot." - collider.com
