Who are your favorite silent film stars?
My very favorite is Louise Brooks.
Her films are fantastic.DIARY OF A LOST GIRL (1929) and PANDORA'S BOX (1929) are works of art! And I have read about her, she has led an amazing life.

It used to be Lon Chaney, or maybe Harold Llyod...I dunno...it is most certainly Louise Brooks right now!

I'll second Buster Keaton, tho I'd also like to throw a bone to Oliver Hardy, Larry Simon, Lon Chaney, & Charlie Chaplin.

I enjoy Keaton- but Chaplin is lost on me...

That's too bad. I like CHARLIE CHAPLIN films, particularly THE KID and THE GOLD RUSH.

The great dictator wasn't silent but I liked it.
