I like "City Lights", "Tabu", and "Silent Movie". And *any* movie by Aki Kaurismäki is always fun to watch.
A little less silent, but mostly sound effects and great tributes to the silent movie era, are the movies by ex-mime Jaques Tati, one of France's greatest directors : "Jour de Fête" (get the color version!), "Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot", "Mon Oncle", "Playtime", and "Trafic".

'Mad Max' - The director hated using dialogue. I just don't understand though why the director of this and 'Road Warrior' just made that movie 'Happy Feet'...lol
You can turn the sound down on the original 'Hitcher' and keep up with everything just fine... :-)
