Buster Keaton shows such genius in this film. It's a breathtaking moment when he walks into the screen for the movie within a movie, and one of my favorite in all of silent cinema. From there we are treated to lots of impressive stunts, many of which were quite dangerous, as well as nearly nonstop visual playfulness and misdirection. Loved the slick pool play too. An absolute gem.
