Thomas H. Ince filmography explained

This is a filmography of Thomas H. Ince (1882–1924), pioneering American silent film producer, director, screenwriter, and actor.

Ince was active in the earliest days of the industry, involved with more than 100 films, and a pioneering studio mogul. Known as the "Father of the Western", he invented many mechanisms of professional movie production, for instance introducing early Hollywood to the "assembly line" system of film making.

With much of his work likely to remain undocumented, misattributed, and/or lost, this filmography is incomplete.
