Sherlock Jr. starring Buster Keaton Buster Keaton is a laugh riot in this Romantic comedy “who-done-it” about a private detective wanna be. He gets framed for stealing a pocket watch that a jealous rival took at his girlfriend’s house. Back at the movie theater, Buster falls asleep and solves the crime by dreaming that he is in the film being shown. Great fun!
