Sherlock Jr. (1924)
7/10
Hasn't aged badly at all
7 December 2020
I gotta say, the lack of dialogue wasn't as big a deal as I thought it would be. The film still flows very naturally. And for a film released 96 years ago, this one hasn't aged badly at all. There were several times watching this where I thought to myself "wow, I can't believe they actually pulled that off!". With the constraints they had, it's remarkable all the things they were able to achieve. And of course, it was pretty funny too, though I can't say there was anything that was laugh-out-loud hilarious. Still, this was definitely not a bad film at all, I'd say it was pretty good. Probably going to watch some other silent films after this because this was a good time.
