I'm gathering some clips for a school project I'm editing on silent cinemagoing. These are a few early comedies with scenes set inside a silent-era theater. Have I forgotten any obvious ones?

Those Awful Hats
Mabel's Dramatic Career
Tillie's Punctured Romance
A Movie Star
Luke's Movie Muddle
The Movies (Snub Pollard)
Sherlock Jr.
