1910s top movies

Movies really started making an impact in the 1910s, with audiences demanding more complicated plots and more information on the stars. This led to the rise of the great studios and the construction of many movie theaters. It was also a decade of innovation, with both the technology and the medium itself. D.W. Griffith's epic Birth of a Nation in particular helped film-making make a giant leap forward. The most popular genres were westerns, melodramas and slapstick comedies. filmsite.org pre 20s intro

If you like Les vampires/Perils of Pauline type of serial silents then http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0009701/ is worth watching, another Feuillade masterpiece, not enough imdb votes for this list though..

Les vampires needs a boost. It's about to disappear and it's arguably the best film on the list.

I'd like to see some of these movies, but somehow my speakers do not seem to work when I want to watch them.
