Review of Sherlock Jr. (1924) by Laura R — 01 May 2013
Buster Keaton's trademark schtick was that of a man pushed around by life; in this hilarious film, Keaton plays an impecunious but imaginative projectionist who is obsessed with detective stories, and who tries to discover who has framed him for stealing a watch belonging to the father of the woman he likes.
The film is considered historically important for its "film within a film" sequence.
