The Film Survival Race!

Now that I've figured out how to make fancy percentages I'm gonna make this spiffy post. Via our "Complete Filmography" Series we are now able to see which films survive for which star. Yet with all the 'lost films' hype floating around its hard to tell just who really has the most missing films, or who has the most surviving.

We shall find out! Each percentage will involve the complete number of films made, and how many survive. For simplicities sake (in a move some may argue with) I am going to include films that partially survive or fragments survive. That way I feel a more accurate picture is presented, as leaving out the fragments leaves out a lot of what we have left. This post will be updated whenever a percentage needs tweaked (a new film found) or a new Filmography is completed. Check back!

Interesting Notes

Of the vamps poor Valeska Surratt wins this round, with Nita and Theda fighting it out for third. With the rediscovery of Nita's Pratermizzi and La Femme Nue Theda takes it! Miriam Cooper sadly takes second place, unusual for a good girl!
