#FlashbackFriday #BusterKeaton ---- Sherlock Jr. (1924)

Buster Keaton! We should remember this name as well! His “Sherlock Jr.”(silent comedy) is definitely a timeless piece. What a lovely plot design! It’s an early example of ‘’a film within a film’’, which is intriguing and charming. It was not a popular film in its day, yet in 1991, “Sherlock Jr.” was selected in the collection of American National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.
