What's the oldest movie you've watched/seen?

To be clear, I don't mean seeing clips out of context made for funnies on the interwebs.
I mean, fully sat down and watched it.
I could be wrong but for me I think the oldest movies I've seen is either Old Yeller or the OG Wizard of Oz

i dont know. I have seen the horse galloping movie, which I think is as early as one can get.

Somewhat recently, I saw Nosferatu, which was the silent film. Surprising to me, I liked it, cause when I have movies with subtitles on, I find I am either reading the subtitles or watching the movie, but its hard to do both. With the action stopping and then the dialog card coming up, I found it was great, I the action would stop until I caught back up. It worked for me.

I learned how to read dialogue (traditional) by watching the whole screen.
Doesn't always work but in 90% of cases it does help, particularly if subtitles are slow paced.
