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 Tesla have the same experience, the popularity is not as big as their opponents, the achievements that can be achieved are amazing, the underestimated geniuses, but they will show their greatness more and more with time. However, it cannot be said that Chaplin and Edison are not great enough. The greatness of Chaplin lies in the fact that his films are more in line with the national conditions and the needs of the audience at that time. The satire of politics and the cynicism of ordinary people is ironic but profound; And Edison was also a businessman when he invented the invention. The previous life of the current giant General Electric (the company where Jack Welch's world's first CEO serves) was founded by him, so he talked about the perfect combination of business and technology, It has created a world-renowned reputation; Keaton and Tesla have not been able to get so much attention from the world.
I have seen Keaton's other classic "The General" before. It is known as an action blockbuster in the comedy world. The wonderful conception and wonderful action scenes are talked about by many moviegoers. The status of the film history. But I want to say that Keaton's "Sherlock Holmes II" and the later "The General" pushed him to the top of the movie. "Fu II" is completely the best plot in a comedy movie. The taste of Dream Space. The most fascinating thing in the film is that people enter the movie scene. As the scene changes, Keaton has to constantly adapt to the new environment, a desert, a sea, and a snow. Stimulating and attracting the curiosity of the audience, it is still a very creative shot even now; then the shot of Keaton being locked on the roof and getting off the fence of the car, just falling out of the car, it really feels very difficult; in addition, he put his clothes on On the window outside the house, I didn't understand it at the time, but in the end I removed the horizontal elevation of the wall, and when I saw the scene where he came out through the window and just got dressed, it was an amazing scene, and so on... ..there are too many wonderful shots and clips in the film. But in the end, it turned out to be a dream. After waking up from the dream, the audience was mobilized again and began to pay attention to the plot. At this time, the heroine who discovered the truth came to find the projectionist who just woke up and imitated the plot in the movie. Finally a lover can only get married.
The film is a true work of art, bearing in mind "The Grudge" Buster Keaton, an independent filmmaker.
