Not-so-silent Films of the 1920s

I never make polls, but answering a meme about films over on Facebook inspired me to ask these questions of LJ readers.

The closest I've gotten to truly silent film was the night Wisconsin Public TV was showing Harold Lloyd films and I had been too close to a too-loud sound (carbide cannon) and had temporary hearing impairment. This was before the time of closed captioning or its being common at least, so the "silent" films were welcome. That Harold Lloyd is good certainly didn't hurt either.

Lloyd is certainly good, but I'm glad I didn't have to see him under those circumstances.
