Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

Intolerance was my number one. To be honest my top 10-15 are pretty interchangeable, but I made the decision to put this at number one because I remember first watching it and just being blown away....

Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

3 Bad Men was my number 7, one of Ford's many masterpieces for me.

I really want to see The Crowd because I have heard that it's absolutely brilliant and people who know my taste well have...

Not seen either but I've heard great things about Borzage and Pabst. Cool to see some interesting names on the list so far.

Broken Blossoms is another Griffith I want to see. Interesting to see him doing so well as didn't know how well he was liked on here.

I had Steamboat Bill, Jr. as my number two. Magnificent film,...

Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

The Great Train Robbery and Nanook of the North are both fantastic films. I had the latter on my list, probably somewhere around the middle I think.

I haven't seen Birth of the Nation, although I...

The only two von Sternberg films that I've seen are Underworld and Docks of New York, which I both thought were incredible, so definitely watch them.

I don't think I've actually seen The Goat, although I love Buster Keaton so I will watch that later.

Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

Amazing to see that Underworld made the list! That was one of the films I was annoyed I didn't watch earlier, so I could have championed it more around here.

I watched it recently and i was blown...

Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

A Corner in Wheat was my number 25.

Re: The MoFo Top 50 Pre-1930 Countdown: The List

I just watched The Skeleton Dance, very good short film. I imagine Walt Disney has a lot of them as he's certainly one of the greatest and most important figures in early cinema.

I'm guessing that...
