Description
DOUBLE FEATURE!
Buster Keaton stars as a humble movie theater projectionist who dreams of becoming a great detective. When he’s framed for a crime he didn’t commit, he dozes off and imagines himself stepping through the movie screen as the dashing Sherlock Jr., solving mysteries with daring stunts and ingenious gags.
Celebrated for its groundbreaking special effects, surreal visual wit, and meta-cinematic flourishes, Sherlock Jr. is a dazzling comic fantasy and a showcase for Keaton’s physical genius. Hailed as one of the greatest silent comedies ever made, it remains a beloved, inventive classic nearly a century after its release.
In The Navigator, Buster Keaton plays Rollo Treadway, a wealthy but utterly unprepared young man who finds himself stranded aboard an empty ocean liner with equally inexperienced heiress Betsy O’Brien (Kathryn McGuire). As the massive ship drifts aimlessly at sea, the pair must navigate cooking, cleaning, and survival—often with hilariously disastrous results.
Featuring elaborate nautical set pieces and some of Keaton’s most impressive stunts, The Navigator was a smash hit in its day and remains a high-water mark of silent comedy, blending romance, physical ingenuity, and maritime spectacle.
