    Buster Keaton was one of a kind . The mold was broke when Keaton was born. Perfection at it's finest !!!! Those facial expressions tell it all, no need for words. Such a good looking man and a very expressive man. !!!!!!

      Buster Keaton didn't do facial expressions. He kept the same stone faced look throughout his entire career and there's scant few examples of him either on or off the screen looking any different. I should know, I was Buster's Pork Pie hat.

      @@satori4183 No, he really did not. Even in his Fatty Arbuckle days he maintained the classic Keaton stone face. It was part of his trademark, so much so that there were (false) rumors that he was contractually obliged to not smile. I'm sure you can drag up a split second here and there in a couple of films where his expression looked slightly different but by and large his facial expressions were consistently deadpan throughout his career. As I said, I was his hat.

      @@satori4183 Yeh, if you combine all of those you get maybe 60 seconds worth of Keaton showing emotion. I think there's more facial expression from Arbuckle in the first 5 minutes of Wedding night than in Keaton's entire career.
      On a related note, I wonder if Roscoe or Buster would ever have guessed that more than a century later people would be arguing over their facial expressions.

    Well, at least the girl was smart enough to check with the pawnbroker about the ticket.
    And the whole movie within a movie section is a creative idea, especially with Keaton's character entering the movie. Very fantastic and dream-like. With a healthy dose of wish-fulfillment, as Keaton's character wants to be a great detective like Sherlock Holmes.
    And I rather like the music as being more soundtrack-ish, applying specific musical ideas to the film, instead of merely doing some ragtime song over and over again to evoke the silent film era. I also seem to hear the faintist echo of a laugh track at certain points in the film.
    Plenty of Keaton's trademark stunts and gags, like running across the top of the train, or using the traffic turnstile to get down from the roof of a building.

    Around 34:20 and then about a minute later, Buster uses some stage illusions. The camera doesn’t cut away because Buster wanted to rely on “real” stage illusions rather than trick camera edits. Source of my information: Jim Kline’s book The Complete Films of Buster Keaton. These two illusions would likely have lost most of their impact if there had been camera edits breaking up the action.

    У стойки, в сухом задымленьи ночи,
    на выданном круге, под лампами, дымом
    живой силуэт каблуками стучит,
    улыбкой играет, как женские мимы.
    В рассыпчатой иве белёсых волос,
    в застывшей, пуховой, пружинистой лаве,
    в букете из ниточек тонких полос
    блуждают лучи и объём поправляют.
    А бриз и круженья порхающих вьюг
    взбивают те локоны, трогая плечи,
    а музыка радует губы и слух,
    а зал осветляют настенные свечи.
    Спектакль красив и занятно хорош,
    подвластен мне зрителю, как режиссёру.
    Червонные стены, узорные сплошь.
    В восторге вкушаю развратную пору.
    Обычно багровым рисуют нам ад.

    Do all silent films scare you, I address to The Pianist who is providing the score? Comedy is not mysterious and otherworldly like the emotional effect I get from listening to this score. From the score alone one might think that poor Buster it's playing Aleister Crowley! I saw this filming at theater in Los Angeles some years back with Robert Israel providing alive musical score. That was really impressive

      Thanks for this comment! Not all silent films. This one was essentially an improv so it did take me on a mysterious turn and I'm sure the Scriabin sonatas and Frederic Rzewski I played in the first half influenced this direction. The film does, to me at least, have some mysterious qualities, the dream like states and effects and the detective vibe.. but of course, it's pure Keaton at heart with high energy stunts. Genius! I bet the R. Israel performance was splendid! I love his work

    To think this movie was made in 96 years ago.
    So incredible, the background shift was so good and synchronised. He was really an amazing artist.

    Great piano work 😎
    But wrong aspect ratio. 🙁
    Silents were meant to be shown 4:3 not widescreen.

    It took half of the movie to arrive at the Sherlock Jr part . But from then on out it was all gags and adventure
