HarmonieBand present a live and lively accompaniment to two Buster Keaton classics…
One Week (U)
Dirs Eddie Cline, Buster Keaton/US 1920/25 mins
Buster Keaton, Sybil Seely, Joe Roberts
A newly wedded couple attempts to build a house with a prefabricated kit, unaware that a rival sabotaged the kit’s component numbering. A cautionary tale for DIY enthusiasts!
Sherlock Jr. (U)
Dir Buster Keaton/US 1924/45 mins
Buster Keaton, Kathryn McGuire, Joe Keaton
Sherlock, Jr. was the third feature-length film Buster Keaton made as an independent after switching to the longer format following a series of brilliant 2-reelers in the early 1920s. Coming after the nuanced and leisurely Our Hospitality (1923), Sherlock, Jr. is by comparison a non-stop collection of gags and stunts, with enough innovation and energy for two features.
