Foolish Wives (Erich von Stroheim, 1922) is a very imperfect film, also because it was axed, but at the same time very fascinating. What is the best part for me, the fire scene, starts before the actual fire is set, when we see the candles blazing on the background...
the "colour" of the candles comes back exploding on screen few minutes later in the form of a fire set by the maid...

Keaton used a cutaway apartment building for one of his most spectacular gags. AND there's a great sequence in a NYC public bath.
