Straightforward question, what's the oldest movie you've ever seen?
Mine is All Quite On The Western Front (1930).
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Well...there's all those barely a narrative film shorts such as Blacksmith Scene from 1893 and all those humorous and quasi-documentary snippets circa 1889 n' such, but personally I don't really consider those films per se and tend to default with The Great Train Robbery from 1903 and A Trip to the Moon from 1902...although I remember coming across a series of stitched together scenes from the bible which I thought was older which I considered as qualifying but the creators and name of the film eludes me at the moment.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari which is a silent German film from 1920s.
Only Chaplin film i've watched was City Lights and that was 1930s.
Wow. alot of people have me beat, the oldest i've seen is:
Gone with the Wind, which I want to say was 1936, if memory serves correctly.

Nope, 1939.
now I might have to go watch it again, I bought on Blue-Ray for my folks.Excluding Edison and Lumiere shrots, probably Trip to the Moon. Feature film is probably Birth of a Nation.
Citizen kane from the 40's. Also Metropolis and the original King Kong, both from the late 20's.
