Basinger sees and notes what is bad about these movies, but the parts that she holds onto and internalizes are the parts that are good and useful to her. It's a nuanced and generous approach to criticism.
I love this approach; this affirmative stance, to viewing (or reading).
… I've only ever seen a handful of silent movies. Less probably. A Buster Keaton one, a Charlie Chaplin one. . . that's about it.
