Seems like Browning did a series of films with Chaney. It seems, from reading up a bit, that THE CROWD and THE UNKNOWN are some kind of classics. The others also seems interesting, especially early work of Vidor and DAS WACHSFIGURENKABINETT, which features a veritable 'hall-of-fame' of early German film personalities (it has, in addition to the people I have mentioned, a script by Henrik Galeen, the director of ALRAUNE, and the much better THE STUDENT OF PRAGUE). I will probably go! Additionally, the City of Munich is a wonderful place...
