Timeline Films is an American film production company that has made several documentaries about stars of the silent screen. Most of the documentaries concern women of that era - Theda Bara, Clara Bow, Mary Pickford, Olive Thomas - but a couple of men have found their way in; specifically, Cecil B. De Mille and Buddy Rogers.
The movies are well researched and narrated by various modern Hollywood stars, including Ted Danson, Jane Fonda, and Charlize Theron. The filmmakers have done silent film fans a great service with their documentaries, showing us rare footage of films that are now lost, such as a short bit of Theda Bara's Cleopatra (only one of her films survives in full), and clips of Olive Thomas, a name now known by only a few die-hard fans.
