TimeGhost History
Published 28 Jul 2021There’s no business like show business and in the spring of 1924, you can see why. Buster Keaton and Hollywood as a whole are producing some iconic films, the British Empire is putting on a massive exhibition, and there is even talk of a death ray.

I’ve watched a lot of silent films thanks to this series. Most of the time, I find the idea of them pretty interesting and I’m always fascinated by their historical significance, but I’ve never really enjoyed them as I would a more recent film. That’s a different story with Sherlock Jr. It is a genuinely charming and funny piece of cinema and one which still feels fresh after almost 100 years. Buster Keaton really did create something special. If you have a spare 45 minutes you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/fZuqWxITq38
