Iconic Silent Movies That Still Leave Viewers Speechless According to Wealth of Geeks

"Film in the silent era was a visual medium, cinema at its most pure and elemental. Without recourse to the spoken word, silent movies created a new language, elevating what began life as a cheap novelty into high art. But it was an art that was doomed from the beginning. The sound revolution was an inevitability, and when it came in 1927, it was brutal, not a passing of the baton but a coup that ended careers and ruined lives, setting silent cinema adrift on the sea of history. Talkies were the way forward, and there was a new language to learn. But because art is immortal and creaky, the best movies of the silent era are still beguiling and heart-stirring to behold." - wealthofgeeks.com
