This is a list of the 120 highest-ranked films on Letterboxd in the decade of the 1910s, within certain qualifications, as of 7 February 2025.

To avoid listing lots of films with relatively high scores on the basis of only a handful of ratings (and there are many of these, some of which turn out to be lost films!), I've set a threshold of at least 500 ratings before considering a film. The current threshold for the overall Letterboxd Top 250 is 15,000 ratings but that would exclude all but two titles from this time period.

Also unlike the Letterboxd list, this one isn't restricted to narrative feature films (which were still relatively rare in the 1910s), including shorts, documentaries and other forms.

There are 120 titles because I figure that the world's film industry should be able to manage at least one really great film per month on average.

My personal recommendations of 150 pre-1920s films are here: boxd.it/1n3mU

This is one of a series of work-in-progress decade by decade lists along similar lines. See letterboxd.com/desdemoor/tag/highest-rated-by-decade/lists/

<- Back to 1900-1910.
-> Forward to 1920-1929.

Pedant's corner: I personally believe the 1910s began on 1 January 1911, but sadly most of the rest of the world seems to disagree with me, including Letterboxd. So to make life easier, all the films listed were released between 1910 and 1919 inclusive.
