I thought the silent generation was the ones who were the greatest generations parents, and adults in the 1920s. During silent movie era.

Nope, you’re thinking of the Lost Generation, nope Silents were called that because like Gen X, they were fewer in number than the post-war Boomers, and becuase they were generally known for being cautious and thrifty, having grown up in the shadow of WWII but too young to fight in it.
