    If you get the chance, it can be quite the experience to watch a screening of a silent movie where the music is played live, like they did back in the day. Sometimes they are played with newly-composed scores.

    Some directors/movies that can be worth checking out are:

    Victor Sjöström – The Phantom Carriage

    Mauritz Stiller – The Saga of Gösta Berling

    Charlie Chaplin – The Kid

    Fritz Lang – The Testament of Dr. Mabuse
