Sherlock, Jr. (1924) is an American comedy silent film starring and directed by Buster Keaton and written by Clyde Bruckman, Jean Havez and Joseph A. Mitchell. It features Kathryn McGuire, Joe Keaton and Ward Crane.[1]
In 1991, Sherlock, Jr. was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant," and on 14 June 2000 the American Film Institute, as part of its AFI 100 Years... series, ranked the film as #62 in the list of the funniest films of all time (AFI's 100 Years... 100 Laughs).
Ooooh! One of my favorites! Did you know that Buster broke his neck during the filming and footage of it actually made it into the movie?

ReplyDeleteIts one of my favorites too and I didn't know that! As soon as I read your comment,
I had to know more! Apparently he didn't even know he broke it until years later.
What a strong gentlemen he was!
Thanks so much for telling me.
