Title: Re: Favorite Silent Film Stars Post by: The Burgomaster on August 24, 2018, 04:59:08 PM * Lon Chaney
* Buster Keaton * John Barrymore * Charlie Chaplin * Harold Lloyd * Douglas Fairbanks * Conrad Veidt * Lillian Gish Laurel & Hardy and W.C. Fields also come to mind, but I liked their "talkies" better than their silent films (especially Fields).

Title: Re: Favorite Silent Film Stars Post by: lester1/2jr on August 29, 2018, 06:24:22 PM Mystery of the leaping Fish definitely holds a special place in my heart.
Me and my niece and nephew watch some Buster keaton things they had on TCM. They were really funny. looney tunes was clearly influenced by that kind of comedy. Title: Re: Favorite Silent Film Stars Post by: Ticonderoga 64 on August 29, 2018, 08:48:22 PM Lon Chaney
