  Arta filmului mut era concentrarea asupra expresiei imaginii redate, o expresie specifică, teatrală, chiar uneori exagerată a actorilor. Această artă a filmului mut a atins culmi artistice înalte; o serie de actori, aleşi după rigorile fotogeniei au contribuit la aceasta (să amintim doar de Rudolf Valentino). Perfecţiunea artei mute a filmului a pus la îndoială însăşi preceptul de a sonoriza filmul. Mulţi au considerat că filmul sonor va fi moartea cinematografului, inclusiv Charlie Chaplin, temere care aşa cum spunea istoricul de cinema Georges Sadoul nu s-a întâmplat întru-cât ..."Operele cele mai bune ale artei mute, solicitau sunetul şi vorba".

Pe taramuri hollywoodiene il intalnim pe Rudolph Valentino, un fel de Brad Pitt al anilor 1920. Povestea lui Valentino (nu are legatura cu mult mai celebrul creator de moda), este una destul de clasica. Asa cum ii sade bine unei vedete de talie internationala, a inceput de jos. S-a nascut in Italia unde nu prea i-a placut cartea, a incercat sa gaseasca de lucru in Paris si inca o data in Italia dar neavand nici un succes a preferat cai necunoscute si a emigrat. A trecut ca un anonim de rand prin centrul de triere de a Ellis Island (prin 1913) si a facut cum a facut de a ajuns sex-simbol si male-icon in industria cinematografica americana.

A murit tanar, la 31 de ani, dar a reusit sa rupa multe inimi in doar noua ani de cariera. Ca tip de imagine insa, stilistic vorbind, a resistat mult mai mult. Exista influente ale acestui sablon de sex-simbol costumat si gelat chiar si in zilele noastre. Personajele masculine din videoclipul piesei Vogue a Madonnei, ca sa aleg cel mai slab dintre exemple.
