The first movie to ever win Best Picture, "Wings" is a cinema milestone and should be revered as one of the most important movies in history.

For my first silent film ever, Wings more than met my standards, it blew me away. Winner of the very first Best Picture Academy Award, this film is one that every movie buff should see. It really is one of the gems of the silent-film era. I went into this this having never experienced a silent movie before and I absolutely loved it. A thing that surprised me were the special effects. There was never a time in the film where I felt the battle scenes looked fake. They were in no way as real as in today's films, but for 1927, they seemed quite good actually. Do not let the 1927 release date keep you away, the film is fantastic.
