Cleopatsy, a 1918 parody of the famed 1917 Cleopatra, also possibly the first ever credited appearance of Totò in a movie:

It isn't Totò the italian actor, who never went to the USA, but Armando Novello who used to go by the name Toto in those years. Someone already made a mess linking Totò to this film on Letterboxd and this is getting everywhere.

Worth noting that the person behind this Cleopatsy discovery is also the same who discovered Cleopatra footage a few years ago, which is impressive.
