 | | Buster Keaton's "Sherlock Jr." focuses on a classic by one of America's greatest silent film geniuses, whose films still delight and amaze audiences worldwide. |
 | | The essays included here, written especially for this edition, examine this film in the context of Keaton's career, and offer new perspectives, among other things, on its unusual production history, Keaton's vaudeville background, and the differing views of "masculinity" that both celebrate and poke fun at cinema itself. |
 | | Various authors offer surprisingly similar takes on Buster Keaton's classic silent film, 'Sherlock Jr.' Unfortunately, these essays refrain from any deep analysis of the film (or other Keaton films for that matter) and instead choose to summarize, over and over again, the film across 191 excruciatingly boring pages. |
