Million Dollar Legs - 1932
A small country on the verge of bankruptcy is persuaded to enter the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics as a means of raising money. Either a masterpiece of absurdity or a triumph of satire, depending on your mood, but it’s quite possibly the funniest movie ever made, and becomes even funnier with subsequent viewings.
Indiscreet - 1931
A young woman (Gloria Swanson) jeopardizes the relationship with the man she loves when a no-account from her past shows up. This movie is a pre-code film, meaning it was made after the introduction of sound in movies in 1929 and before the enforcement of the Motion Picture Production Code censorship guidelines in 1934.
Borrowed Wives - 1930
Not as interesting as it sounds. Peter stands to inherit a fortune at midnight, except there’s (of course) just one catch! He has to be married by then, otherwise his inheritance goes to his uncle, currently living in a haunted mansion. Will Peter get married and subsequently rich?
A Blonde for a Night - 1929
After an argument, a newlywed decides to test her husband’s fidelity by disguising herself as a blonde.
Sherlock Jr. - 1924
Buster Keaton plays a closet detective who works as a film projectionist. When he is framed for stealing his girlfriend’s father’s pocket watch by a rival, he let’s his detective persona out of the closet.
The Electric House - 1922
A Buster Keaton classic (aren’t they all?) where at his graduation he receives the wrong diploma. This is actually helpful to him because it gets him a job he uses to impress a lady he’s sweet on by installing electricity into their house. Of course, he actually has no idea what he’s doing. Comedy ensues…
The Paleface - 1922
Buster Keaton inadvertently becomes part of a Native American tribe in the middle of fighting off some wealthy white oil people who want their land.
Cops - 1922
A series of mistaken identity mishaps manages to make a young man get chased by a big city’s entire police force. This is another great Buster Keaton short movie.
