Just a reminder that you can watch, legally, Ozu Yasujirō's 突貫小僧 A Straightforward Boy (1929) on the Toy Film Museum YT channel. The peculiarity of this version is that is accompanied with a Benshi narration in English:
"小津安二郎監督『突貫小僧』(1929年）英語“カツベン”バージョン"

Keaton used a cutaway apartment building for one of his most spectacular gags. AND there's a great sequence in a NYC public bath.

#nowWatching "Fanchon the Cricket" (1915) based on a George Sand novel. Its star #MaryPickford thought this a lost film; it is the only one in which her two siblings Jack and Lottie co-star.
A nice bonus is the opening excerpt of the #UnitedArtists creation, Mary Pickford signing, and Chaplin standing behind her in the centre of the frame. #silentCinema #SilentFilm

#Bales2023FilmChallenge March 23: Someone barely escapes something on #NationalNearMissDay

In Steamboat Bill, Jr. (Charles Reisner / Buster Keaton, 1928), former vaudevillian Keaton narrowly escapes the façade of a house crashing down around him. Both Keaton and the stunt lived on, probably most famously in Keaton aficionado Jackie Chan's Project A Part II (HK, 1987). Despite all the well-meant tributes, none of the later stunts are as nail biting as the pre-OSHA original.
