 For instance, despite fading into relative obscurity once its era had passed, silent cinema is represented by eleven films in "Time Out"'s Centenary of Cinema Top One Hundred poll, held in 1995.The first year in which sound film production predominated over silent film—not only in the United States, but also in the West as a whole—was 1929; yet the years 1929 through 1933 are represented by three dialogueless pictures ("Pandora's Box" [1929], "Zemlya" [1930], "City Lights" [1931]) and zero talkies in the "Time Out" poll.
