    Buster Keaton has two must-see movies, "The General" and "Little Sherlock." Perhaps in comedy, Chaplin and Keaton are evenly matched, but in filming, Keaton has an impressive achievement. Many of his shooting techniques are groundbreaking and unimaginable. If we consider that era, we can say that Buster Keaton was a "movie...

    Looking at it again, I still think Keaton is delicate and beautiful, a Fitzgerald-esque (?) beauty. In addition, looking at it with a sophisticated look, I immediately caught more than 800 Guyrich plagiarizing real hammers! What kind of detective is a thief, talking to the person riding the motorcycle while running, and talking to himself when the passenger is thrown away! I catch you...

    Great silent film, in Hollywood comedies of the time, Keaton's cold face is quite unique, neutral face, quiet gesture has more richness. The greatness lies in the double NB of technology and textual connotation, and the action scenes and illusion design are amazing. Keaton's play-within-play begins with a time-space editing that expresses the possibility of film as an imagination, and then deconstructs and reconstructs reality to reveal the subject and object of film, and explain film's role in...

    Both the play and the production are genius levels beyond the times. Keaton and Chaplin, though different in style, are equally great. Thinking of the only work that the two masters collaborated on was "Stage Career", I felt very sad. A work created nearly a hundred years ago with only forty minutes can provide countless learning spaces for future directors and creators in every aspect. I think this is the greatness of Keaton himself and the art of film....

    The greatness of this work can be compared with that of the General, or even slightly better. The General focuses on the grasp of the plot, and this one shows the design of the scene and structure. It's only 45 minutes, but it's full of succession and transformation, and the important scenes are creative again and again. In the 1920s, this was almost all the possibilities of silent film comedy. I still can't believe that the special effects were at the level of that era. Keaton, I'm totally...

    A work of genius born under the blessing of the god of movies. The interaction of dream and film implies the essence of film; the play within the play in which the texts echo each other; the boundary between the theater and the screen is broken to confuse reality and fantasy; a set of action-matching edits that go down in history; a thrilling billiard show; Motorcycle drama; in the end, reality and film have intertextuality again, which is really a...

    Don't say it's a movie from 90 years ago, even after 90 years it will be five stars! Genius is genius, and talent will overflow @2012-04-20...

    too strong. . . . Travel across the screen and off-screen and use the cutscenes in the movie to make jokes. Action stunts and road stunts are very strong, once again confirmed as the originator of this type of film (I haven't seen it earlier anyway). The version I've seen seems to be...

    The genius work of the underrated "genius"

    Buster Keaton, a master who is as famous as the famous Chaplin, has the meaning of dividing the north and the south in ancient China. I think his evaluation is very similar to another pair of enemies in the same period - the inventor Edison and the father of alternating current Tesla. Keaton and...

    Sherlock Holmes II

    Poor Keaton is again misunderstood by his beloved, this time as a projectionist aspiring to be a detective. He sat depressed in the screening room, watching the screen fall into a dream, which was playing a movie that mirrored his frame-up experience. He walked out of the projection room, sat in...
