I've seen Birth of a Nation, just finished Nosfratu and am about to watch Metropolis.
What are some other silent films worth watching after that?
Well, after the whole of 3, you'll be missing, I don't know, some hundreds? No, no, actually, a good couple thousands considering short films.
Entry-level:
The General
Intermediate:
Intolerance
Advanced:
Tabu
>>69834732
Yeah, great. You didn't name any of them..
Other rec's:
The Parson's Widow (Carl Th. Dreyer's funniest film)
Four Sons (John Ford copying his idol, Murnau)
Sunrise (advanced the art of film by decades)
Battleship Potemkin (revolutionary editing)

Nor it would be a necessary act. Someone serious wouldn't come to fucking /tv/ after watching the immensity of three films. On them alone btw, you'd have some dozens direct recommendations.
The Man Who Laughs
Wings
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
I was Born But...

You've just needlessly taken an opportunity to act like an elitist faggot. I know NOTHING about silent films and as you so brilliantly pointed out there are fucking tons of them. I don't even know why you bothered to speak other than to sound like a cunt.
Kill yourself.
Battleship Potemkim
L'Inferno
The Passion of Joan of Arc

It's very important to act like a cunt for your kind. AA behavior to be incentivated, more elitism the better, even though it's quite late.
The little shits tourists types like you are the ones invading this board and making it worse by the day. You're just a lazy shit attention whore who could have done an obvious work by yourself.

lol dude I can't take it

Buster Keaton stuff
since no one else has mentioned it yet, City Girl is an excellent film and a bit of a spiritual predecessor to Malick's Days of Heaven
>>69834598
The original mummy movie was based and imhotep was a sith lord.
You should watch the rest of Murnau. Nosferatu is overrated imo. Sunrise, The Last Laugh, Faust, City Girl, and Tabu are all better. Also check out:
Man With a Movie Camera - sort of an antithesis to other Russian silent films of the time.
The Phantom Carriage - Directed by the great Swede Victor Sjostrom, who pioneered directing/acting in his country. Great effects and story.
Zvenigora - Russian folk-lore, great poetic harmony. One of Tarkovsky's favorite directors.
Earth - Same person that directed Zvenigora, same idea.
Napoleon - An epic that's over five hours long. I should really say THE epic. Great battle sequences, cool symbolism, nationalistic.
As for Murnau, not enough can be said. John Ford went to Germany to study his set design. He's the greatest filmmaker in my mind. He's poetic, he uses visuals to the highest degree, and his films aren't clunky like a lot of silent films.

Do to other anons I have them all in my playlist. Not those other ones though.
The Cabinet of Dr Caligari
>>69834865
Tabu is hardly advanced
Source: i don't know shit about silent cinema but i've already seen it
Sunrise is the most beautiful film ever
Modern Times is pretty essential Charlie Chaplin stuff. Watch that.
Lot in Sodom
Hands of Orlac
Brand Upon the Brain!
Ben Hur with Novarro
>>69834598
I really like Fritz Lang's Nibelungen movies.
A Woman of Paris is an underrated Chaplin movie, it's a romance story that doesn't feature his tramp character but is still pretty good.
The Adventures of Prince Achmed uses silhouette animation and Lotte Reiniger is the only animator I've seen use this technique.
A Trip to the Moon is ten minutes long and about wizards going to the moon, what's not to like?
>>69834598
isn't really helping OP but I just wanted to add the best movie experience I ever had was years ago the Fargo Theater showed Nosferatu with an actual organ player doing the music then followed it up with Shadow of the Vampire. Was a really cool experience.
>>69838441
Sounds pretty cool.
everything mentioned so far is good.
make sure you watch Dr. Caligari. Very important and incredible film. Same with Man With A Movie Camera.
I would recommend
Berlin: Symphony of a Great City by Walter Ruttmann
Un Chien Andalou by Luis Bunuel,
Rooster Cogburn is pretty good imo
Joan of Arc
Sherlock Jr
