6. A movie with a scene set in Northern Africa

FROM THE MANGER TO THE CROSS (1912) by the American Kalem film company and likely co-directed by actress/screenwriter Gene Gauntier.

Yes, those are the real pyramids. The Sphinx makes a cameo too. Location shoots were hot pre-WWI.

8. A movie set in rural America

Debated on this one since Charles Ray is the obvious choice but then again, he's so obscure now that maybe he needs the bump.

So, THE BUSHER (1919) co-starring Colleen Moore and John Gilbert. (Bonus kitten.)

11. A movie with an underwater scene

LA FEE (2011)

I eternally stan stars/directors Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel. Extremely influenced by silent comedy.

12. A live-action movie with an animated sequence

THE PINK PATHER (1963) with its elaborate, loooong animated credits that were spun off as a series in their own right. (We need fancy opening credits to come back, dudes.)
