My attempt at a comprehensive list of feature-length and short sound films produced in America between 1930 and July 1934 (plus others included on pre-code.com, and Wikipedia's and Letterboxd's Pre-Code film lists).

This list of great Old Hollywood movies from early 1930s to silent era currently presumed to be lost. `DesperateDesmondSeries1911  `LadyBaffles&DetectiveDuckSeries1915 `HarryLauderSeries1914 `TheAdventuresofHappyHooligan1900 *AliceBeGood1926 Alice&the3Bears1924 AliceFireFighter1926 AliceattheCarnival1927 AliceFireFighter1926 AliceCharmstheFish1926 Alice'sPicnic1927 AliceCutstheIce1926 Alice's3BadEggs1927 AliceFoilsthePirates1924 AliceGetsinDutch1927 Alice'sRodeo1927 AlicetheBeachNut1927 AliceHelpstheRomance1926 AliceHuntinginAfrica1924 AliceinHungerland1922 AliceintheAlps1927 AliceinBigLeague1927 AliceintheKlondike1927 Alice'sAutoRace1927 AlicethePiper1924 Alice'sBrownDerby1926 Alice'sChannelSwim1927 AliceDayatSea1924 AlicetheCollegiate1927 Alice'MedicineShow1927 AlicetheGolfBug1927 AliceKnaughtyKnight1927 AliceMonkeyBusiness1926 BillSeries1914 *AlicetheLumberjack1926 `HearstSeligNewsPictorialSeries `CartoonsInSeries1915 ^ColHeezaLiarSeries `Mike&JakeSeries1913 `Mutt&JeffSeries1911`Animated&MutualWeeklySeries ShortySeries1917-1915-1914 `SweedieSeries1915 Sweedie&theLord1914 SweedietheTroublemaker1914 SweedieCollectsforCharity1914 Sweedie&theHypnotist1914 Sweedie&theDoubleExposure1914 SweedietheSwatter1914 SweedieattheFair1914 Sweedie'sCleanUp1914 SweedieSpringsaSurprise1914 LonesomeLukeSeries1916-1917

A ranking of Joan Bennett's film performances.

Edward G. Robinson and Joan Bennett in The Woman in the Window (1944)

God was sad last Monday (10/12) when Regis Toomey passed away of natural causes in Woodland Hills, CA.  Toomey was the consummate character actor who appeared in 179 films in a career than spanned 50 years.

His most popular genres were: drama, romance, crime/film noir and comedy.  

3.5 lowest IMDb rating -  Evil Town (1977)

8.1 highest IMDb rating - The Big Sleep (1946)

His appearances in movies obtained these IMDb ratings: mean      -   6.5 median    -   6.2 mode      -    6.8 (13)

His most productive years were the 30s and 40s when Regis appeared in 69% of his feature films.

I always enjoyed watching him perform

Mae Busch and Chester Morris in Alibi (1929)

US movies from 1930 (second year of the "pre-code" era of 1929-1934) which are listed as lost on IMDB. Many of these films have user ratings and reviews. The mere existence of reviews didn't cause a film to be excluded from this list. Some reviews could be from people who saw the film before it was lost. On the other hand, some reviews seem based not on actually having seen the movie, but on something the reviewer has read elsewhere, or that the reviewer does/doesn't like an actor/the director, doesn't like old movies, or whatever, and wants to chime in based on that. And frankly, some reviews I have read come across as fabrications ("I had an exclusive showing of this otherwise lost film in the home of a private collector").
