Reviewed by Chris Tookey
|
Surreal comedy which wastes little time on exposition and sets out on a succession of marvellously inventive sight-gags. The witty special effects are impressive for their time. It's a silent comedy masterpiece which many consider Keaton's best. Its influence can clearly be seen on much later films such as The Purple Rose of Cairo and The Last Action Hero.
