I’m glad someone posted a marxbros film. I’d also add WC Fields’s “Never Give a Sucker an Even Break”.

Some great Silents:
The Phantom of the Opera
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
Metropolis

Yep. One point of clarification: I think Night at the Opera might have been in 1935, lest anyone point that out.

Ever seen “Vampyr”, directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer? I think it was released in 1932. It’s not a silent, but it’s the scariest version of the Dracula legend I’ve ever seen.
