Silentina is used often in actual silent film restorations...

Problem is, most intertitles were hand lettered, so a font looks too uniform to the picky, but I don't  know of anyone who still practices the art of hand lettering for signs.

Of course, by hand-kerning the text, you can get a lot closer to a more agreeable look.
