Silent movie examples

Silent Movie Films:

A silent movie/film consists of only the pictures or movie without sound. Meaning that a great emphasis on the body language and facial expressions of the actors are required. Silent movies are not a genre in themselves, they are a multiple of genre hybrids.
Silent movies/films date back from the "silent era" before the 1920's when people didnt have the technology to have colour and so a silent black and white movie were the only cinematic experiences available.
Notable films:

The Artist (2011)

Phantom of the Opera (1925)
