The Silent Era

Some of my favorite silent film actresses. They were talented, gorgeous and all around stars. Time gave us these extraordinary women. Though time took them away, we must remember and appreciate what they gave us in their time....

This song really makes the mind think.

Included:
Greta Garbo
Dolores Del Rio
Mary Pickford
Mabel Normand
Louise Brooks
Alla Nazimova
Norma Shearer
Dorothy Sebastian
Clara Bow
Marion Davies
Billie Dove
Gloria Swanson
Nita Naldi
Anita Page

All these women were beautiful and talented. Great tribute! What greta garbo movie is that, where shes holding the flowers?

[Pie2]

@Suilyaniz Thank you very much! Of course there are more silent actresses who were amazing. That movie with Garbo is "A Woman of Affairs" from 1928. If you ever get the chance to see it, definitely do. It's a great piece of work by all involved. =]

@Pie2 Thank you for telling me the name. I want to see that one and the one with billie dove. What is the name? i would like to see both of them.

[Pie2]

@Suilyaniz Ah, man I can't remember which movie it's from. I want to say it's "Night Watch" from 1928 but I'll have to find out.

@nextmovebestmove Just wanted to also add and clarify that I LOVE this video, I only mention Laemmle and Tovar because, wouldn't it have been great, had the video ended with photos of those 2 in their primes, listing them as 1909- , then 1910- ?

Don't forget 2 Silent Era actresses who are still alive and well today. Carla Laemmle, born 1909, and Lupita Tovar, born 1910. I've always thought the Silent Era, particularly the 1920s, gave us the sexiest women ever seen in film. They had such style, grace and beauty that, put together, gave them that ''something'' that hasn't been seen since then.

That was great! The music was perfect. These were beautiful and talented women. I hate it when you watch some of these tributes on youtube and they play rock music.

Fantastic montage to the silent stars!

Really nice video. That song goes so well with it, Only time. Your words at the end ring so true. Thanks for sharing. ;)

You made a beautiful video. I have made videos about maybe half of these beautiful ladies. I love the Enya music too. I like modern actresses too, but I enjoy remembering the silent stars at their best.

Great!!!! I love the music you used! I haven't heard that song in ages! One thing is for sure, women in Hollywood now just don't have the "class" that these great ladies did! Unfortunately we are "stuck" with the Lindsey Lohans, fake boob job tramps or the spoiled, drug and alcohol addicted heiresses! :))

Fabulous! I shared this video on my Ziegfeld Follies Girls Tribute on Facebook, Excellent!
