About this listen
Joe and Mark welcome back writer and editor Ira Nayman, returning to Re-Creative for a third time — we like him that much!
Ira has returned to the podcast to discuss the work of actor, comedian and filmmaker Buster Keaton, in particular his stunning 1924 action/comedy Sherlock Jr., which Ira describes as “an amazing exploration of the nature of film itself” and “astonishingly smart.”
A film of “multiple layers,” Sherlock Jr. was years ahead of its time in terms of conception and execution.
Ira, Joe and Mark examine the film on every level, including the amazing and dangerous stunt work, for which Keaton is justifiably famous, and the surreal nature of his imagery, which continues to inform Ira’s own work.
