Keaton, who is as famous as Chaplin as a silent film master, is indeed not as well-known as Chaplin, but the importance of the two to the silent film era is unshakable by others!
In the early 1950s, silent films almost disappeared. In the 1960s, a batch of silent film animations were born. "Tom and Jerry" and "Popeye" animation of many characters' actions and ideas were influenced by silent films. .
"Seven Chances", a film from the 1920s, still has a lot of surprises today. The only drawback of the film is that the story of the film is too simple and cliché (this is seen from the current perspective) The soundtrack of the film continues The style of silent films is always lively and playful! The rhythm of the movie, except for the opening few minutes after Jimmy's unsuccessful pursuit of his crush, made me addicted to watching the climax of the movie. The scene where Jimmy was chased by many callers for marriage was not small at all! During the period of avoiding the stone, I really squeezed a sweat for him. Although I knew it was a prop, I couldn't help but worry when I saw the stone rolling down. What surprised me was that Jimmy's actor, Buster Keaton, was not tall and thin. In this clip, his small body burst out with great energy! A variety of difficult actions emerge in an endless stream (Jackie Chan, who pioneered the action comedy, was also inspired a lot in Keaton's films).
Movies are really wonderful things. This movie has been released for nearly a hundred years, but it can still make people happy, so good works will not fade with time, but contain amazing brilliance.
