Unlike 1922 I've only actually seen one of these, which I shall vote for by default.

Gunnar Hedes Saga has been on my to-see list since 2003, when I eBay'd a copy of Richard Roud's two-volume Cinema

Madame Beudet is great. I watched the whole thing on youtube, so unless they took it down I highly recommend watching it before making your vote.

I watched Safety Last! several years ago at the Castro Theater as part of the SF Silent Film Festival. It was shown with live accompaniment by a performer playing the “Mighty Wurlitzer Hope-Jones Unit Orchestra” pipe organ, and was one of the most amazing film experiences of my life

Went with Keaton - one of my favorites, one of his masterpieces.
