Silent Era Poll

There is an immense silent film website known as Silent Era, which polls visitors on the greatest silent movies ever made. The current Top 10:

1) The General (not Greed or Metropolis, or something by Chaplin!?)
2) Sunrise (never seen it, but apparently need to)
3) Metropolis
4) City Lights
5) Nosferatu (back in the 70's I saw negative reviews, but that view has changed)
6) The Gold Rush
7) La Passion et la Mort de Jeanne d'Arc
8) Greed (need to see this)
9) The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (I didn't think it was that good)
10) Die Buchse der Pandora

I can only assume, given your question, that you've never seen The General. See it!
