Web sites devoted to specific stars and directors of the silent film era.

Roscoe Arbuckle
His friends never called him "Fatty." That's just one of the facts you'll learn when you visit the "Arbucklemania" site!

Theda's Hollywood
It's hard to believe the creator of this site is a teenager, but she is. Adina Zidon's tribute to Theda Bara is fun to read and shows a passion for the early days of film.

The Sarah Bernhardt Pages
Devoted to the actress who was so popular in Victorian times, and who appeared in a few films in the early days of the industry. Includes a gallery, plus lists of films, recordings, book reviews, and links to other sites.

Eleanor Boardman
A tribute to the nearly forgotten silent film star, lovingly created by Adina Zidon.

The Clara Bow Page
You'll love the wonderful photos on this tribute to the great silent film star. Also a nice essay on "The Unknown Clara Bow."

A Tribute to Betty Bronson
Don Koks offers a very nice tribute to the star best known for her portrayal of Peter Pan in the 1924 silent film, a role for which she beat out big stars such as Mary Pickford and Gloria Swanson. She retired less than a decade later, after failing to recapture that earlier success.

Every Little Breeze: The Louise Brooks Page
Louise Brooks was a dancer, actress and writer of the 1920s who never achieved great fame in her day, but who has been rediscovered by modern audiences.

The Louise Brooks Society
You'll enjoy this large site for the society dedicated to the life and times of the silent film star.

The Lon Chaney Home Page
Devoted to the legendary silent actor Lon Chaney, Sr., this site by Jon C. Mirsalis features an extensive annotated filmography and a "still code index" for identifying Chaney still photos.

A Tribute to Charlie Chaplin
He was the first movie star millionaire, the biggest star of the silent film era, and an astute businessman who made sure that he would not be forgotten. He hasn't been.

This tribute to the under-appreciated silent era comedian was offline for a while, and I just recently discovered that it's back in business at yet another new address.

A special section of Tim Lussier's Silents Are Golden site, devoted to the almost-forgotten actress who was once the most popular child star in silent movies, but who died of tuberculosis at age 31.

Janet Gaynor
One of several galleries in David Pearson's excellent Silent Ladies site.

John Gilbert at Classic Movie Favorites
A brand new site from Lynn Dougherty, devoted to the silent film star who tragically failed to make the transition to talkies, not because of his voice, but because of Louis B. Mayer's hatred of him.

The First Lady of the Silent Screen
Lillian Gish's Official Site from CMG offers a brief biography, a list of her films, a half-dozen photos, awards, and links.

Jean Harlow
Another new gallery in David Pearson's Silent Ladies site, devoted to the women of the silent era.

The International Buster Keaton Society
Check out What's New, read the feature articles, enter the contest, or join The Damfinos (the Society's nickname), with all the benefits that entails. This is also the only place where you can purchase officially licensed Keaton merchandise.

The Harry Langdon Society
They're just wild about Harry, and you should be, too. One of the great silent film comedians, he was once thought of as the equal of Chaplin, and has recently been receiving some well-deserved attention.

Harold Lloyd
Previously known as "Hello, Harold," this site is now the home page for the Harold Lloyd Trust, and concentrates on events, books, and films for rent.

The Olive Thomas Gallery
Actress Olive Thomas was a popular model and silent film star who is probably best known today for having been the focus of the first great Hollywood scandal when she died from poisoning, supposedly an accident. This gallery is from David B. Pearson's Silent Ladies and Gents site.

Ben Turpin Central
Most of this site is done in a tongue-in-cheek spirit, as befits the work of the cross-eyed comedian. It also includes a thorough filmography by film scholar Steve Rydzewski.

The Conrad Veidt Society
Home page for the society whose goals are to celebrate Veidt's career and his humanitarian legacy, and to promote the study and enjoyment of classic films.

Henry B. Walthall
As silent film historian Anthony Slide, quoted on this site, once said, "There is no other player from the silent era so closely associated with one screen role than Henry B. Walthall." That screen role, fortunately or unfortunately, was The Little Colonel in D.W. Griffith's Birth of a Nation (1915). But there was more to this actor than that, and you'll find it here on this lovingly researched site.
