As a place where desires come true, Zizek certainly has a lot to say about [Sherlock Holmes II]. What books can't teach the protagonist, movies do for him. Buster Keaton's brilliantly cut, machine-accurate masterpiece speaks to a truly modern theme. The epilogue after Huacai is the philosophical core of the film. The male protagonist no longer belongs to the inner narrative level and is isolated from the film, so the reality and the film form a juxtaposition. And the clever male protagonist was...

This is the founder of breaking down the barriers between dreams and reality, and realizing two-way intertextuality inside and outside the play! It can be described as a perfect interpretation of "movies are eternal dream machines". Subsequent "Purple Rose of Cairo" and "Tonight at the Romantic Theater" are somewhat borrowed. At first glance, Keaton’s film was shocked beyond words. In just 45 minutes, so many elements can be packed in. The meticulous craftsmanship of various techniques is...

The script and stunts are all perfect for Chaplin, but I always feel that the performance is still a little...

So awesome! It even used a play within a play, and about half of the play was Keaton's dream when he was asleep in the theater's projection room. Using Méliès's double-exposure technique, he can even shake himself to remind himself of what is happening on the screen when he is out of his body in the dream. What I admire even more about Keaton's imagination is that in the dream, he can actually penetrate the screen and enter the world on the screen. Then, the camera pushed over, pushing the...

Great Buster, Keaton ahead of his time. Traveling through the screen is not only the form of going in from the outside, but also the soul and spirit of going out from the inside. great...

If the General is great, this Sherlock Holmes II is legendary. The cold-faced comedian is able to open up the infinite possibilities of the film with ease, not only for the latecomers to continue to learn from and imitate, but also to create a peak that is unmatched by action comedies. The structure of the play within the play opens up a new chapter. The characters walk into the screen to break the boundary between reality and the screen, and create comedy effects through seamless editing and...

In the end, it's comedy body language, wrestling, wrestling, wrestling, wrestling, wrestling details and amazing filming techniques. On the screen, as a creator, he is very, very, very attentively laughing at the audience. It's too powerful Is he just a cameo in the sound era? It's a pity that he was born 30 years...

Surprised by the technology of this film, such an advanced double exposure thought it was a product of the digital age, supernatural editing, godlike audio-visual language. All kinds of action scenes are really too hard and wonderful, as well as the fascinated feelings of entering and leaving the big screen, the scenes in the play are too exciting, the tension and excitement of playing billiards, the joy of riding a motorcycle, the romance of riding on water, and the clumsy and cute imitation...
