Sherlock Jr.

Just what you need, believe me.

A YouTube clip from Buster Keaton's 1924 Sherlock Jr. with Air music video soundtrack. The same YouTube author did seven other Keaton clips with modern soundtracks, all good to great. One Week (from 1920) was my second favorite of his Keaton clips; The Cameraman (1928) clip makes me think of Kubrick - but see them all.
