In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

City Lights (1931)
A comedy by Charlie Chaplin.
A hobo saves the life of a rich manwho becomes his friend, but doesn't remember unless he's drunk. The hobo also falls in love with a blind flower girl.
This wasn't quite as good as Modern Times, but it was still in the same style. The plot and characters were good and there was no dialogue, but a minimum of text screens. I really don't know what to write for this, so I'm just rating it o.k.
