Bogart ftw. The Maltese Falcon is perfect.
One night, TCM had Abel Gance night and they played J'accuse and Napoleon starting at midnight. I made it through J'accuse, which is 2 and 45 minutes silent, but I didn't even try for Napoleon which is 5 and 1/2 hours, silent. My roommate watched them both because it was the first (and probably last) time they were ever shown on TV and in restored form.
