  7. Anna Boleyn (1920) is by far the most conventional of Ernst Lubitsch's early silent films and the most disappointing. It's a by-the-numbers historical tragic romance epic. Lubitsch was always at his best when he was being wild and crazy.

  8. Ernst Lubitsch's Eyes of the Mummy (1918) sounds like a horror film but it's a romantic melodrama although there's an ancient Egyptian tomb and a curse, and strange and inexplicable events. Pola Negri stars. Early Lubitsch is so wild and crazy.

  9. The Spiders (1919-20), very early Fritz Lang film combining action and adventure in exotic locales with romance and intrigue. A sportsman discovers a lost remnant of the Inca Empire. And there's a ruthless secret society. Huge amounts of fun.

  10. WEST OF ZANZIBAR is a 1928 silent tropical melodrama spiced with horror. Directed by Tod Browning, stars Lon Chaney. Deep in the jungle a bitter cripple plots a terrible revenge. Outrageous, but the 1932 talkie remake KONGO is vastly superior.

  11. Flesh and the Devil is a 1926 MGM silent melodrama starring Greta Garbo and John Gilbert. A huge hit which made Garbo a star. Gloriously lurid, steamy, melodramatic and romantic and absolutely dripping with sex. Garbo sizzles. Great movie.

  12. The Oyster Princess is a 1919 German Ernst Lubitsch film, described perfectly as a grotesque comedy. An American millionaire decides to buy a prince for his daughter. Good-natured fun with typical early Lubitsch crazy bizarre touches.

  13. Ernst Lubitsch's The Doll (Die Puppe, 1919) is like a child's storybook come to life. No movie has ever revelled in its artificiality to this extent. And we have a girl playing a doll playing a girl. A gloriously insane fairy tale delight.

  14. Sumurun (1920), early Ernst Lubitsch Arabian Nights-style fantasy/adventure/romance with Pola Negri. At times it's tragedy, at other times cheerful bedroom farce, but always driven by sex. Early Lubitsch was astonishingly bold and experimental.

  15. The Thief of Bagdad (1924), entirely a product of the genius of Douglas Fairbanks Sr, is one of the greatest Hollywood movies ever made. A visually stupendous tale of adventure, magic and romance. Entrancing, breathtakingly imaginative. Superb.

  16. Today is the U.S. Marine Corps Birthday (a day before Veterans Day). Mark it by enjoying the horror master Lon Chaney in a non-horror turn but still scary as a Marine sergeant in 1926's "Tell It To The Marines"!

  18. While getting photos of Mack Sennett postcards I left the folder open to these wonderful original movie promo photos for Zasu Pitts. Thema Todd appears in the left one. 2 very funny women who made the switch to sound. Their peak was in the early sound era.

  19. Mack Sennett Comedy Postcards

    Better known for Keystone Film slapstick films Mack Sennett also produced comedies featuring bathing beauties. Bordering on the salacious at the time they were a popular alternative to "French Postcards."

  20. #Bales2023FilmChallenge March 8: a #movie shot in #Oregon for #NationalOregonDay

    For authenticity reasons, Clyde Bruckman and Buster Keaton's The General (1926) was – for the most part – filmed on location in Oregon. Set during the #AmericanCivilWar, it's a comedic retelling of a popular war memoir about the #GreatLocomotiveChase.

    Sadly it was a box office #flop, resulting in Keaton losing his independence and The General entering the #PublicDomain as early as 1954. Luckily for us that means we too can enjoy the views of beautiful 1920s Oregon: yewtu.be/watch?v=YWm587wKKVw (note: this version has the appropriate piano score but appears to be a missing few minutes).
