It's 1924. Buster Keaton, one of the cinematic greats of this era, is at the height of his career. Called "The Great Stone Face" due to his distinctive stoical expression, Keaton's films include dangerous physical stunts and impeccable comedic timing. Sherlock Jr. is no exception. Keaton plays a movie projectionist who hopes to become a great detective as he tries to untangle mysteries and win the girl both in real life and in his daydreams.
What Sherlock Jr. offers casual movie fans who have always meant to watch classic movies: 45-minutes of superbly paced comedy; a quintessential look at one of film's great actor/directors; a series of perfectly orchestrated set pieces; a wild, "how did they film that?" motorcycle ride; and plenty of laughs.
