  One Week 1920

  ★★★★½ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  From the beginning, Keaton has been death-defyingly hilarious!

  it doesn’t break. 

  Absolutely brilliant time. brilliant cinematography, brilliant performances, brilliant direction, brilliant suspense, brilliant film. i somehow managed to go into this COMPLETELY BLIND in 2025, and i’m so glad i managed to wait to see it first in a theatre. real, real respect for this one.
