Charlie Chaplin. Buster Keaton. Mary Pickford. Fatty Arbuckle. Lillian Gish. Myrna Loy. Theda Bara. Our Gang. The Keystone Cops. These are just a few of the names that made the era of silent movies so glorious. Silent films began with pioneering geniuses like Thomas Edison and his Edison Kinetoscope Co., and the Lumiere Brothers. Edison's experimental shorts, like Fred Ott's Sneeze (1894) and The Kiss (1896) are among the very first moving pictures.
