Sherlock, Jr.

I was very impressed at the humor I found upon watching Keaton's Sherlock, Jr. It was very much a slapstick comedy, relying heavily on Keaton making a fool of himself physically, using funny physical theatrics to get out of tough situations, or simply his funny looks. But it also drew on a lot more than that. Keaton created genuinely hilarious moments, whether it be him watching the screen of a couple to know what to do with the girl, or awkwardly giving away the dollars that he owns because he felt like he gave away somebody else's dollar. It's all real comedy gold that isn't necessarily too physical (as far as slapstick goes. It's definitely still physically happening). Keaton did a great job combining these hilarious moments with slapstick hilarity, all with relatively small amounts of dialogue. Quite hilarious. Some of his awkward moments make me feel similar to how I do when watching something like Guardians of the Galaxy, or Parks and Recreation, or really anything with Chris Pratt. He's got a subtlety to his comedy in the physicals, but something that really drives home. He says or does something small, but in the context and with how he's acting, it's made to be quite hilarious. Keaton and Pratt seem to be similar in this area, and I know there are others. Keaton definitely was a comedian that could spread across time, and still be funny and relevant today.
