Silent Films on TCM this August

Hello again my friends. Because August is Summer Under the Stars, there will be no silent Sunday nights on TCM, and there are very few days in which silent films will be played this month. However there are some great silent films this month and I am going to list them here all the same. The star for August 19th is Buster Keaton, so naturally there are some great silents on that day.
