Hi!
A few years ago I happened upon Every Frame a Painting—an excellent YouTube channel that examines all the aspects of what goes into making a great film.
Today's post features one of that channel's videos: "Buster Keaton - The Art of the Gag."

| Screen Capture: "Buster Keaton - The Art Of The Gag" |
For anyone asking, "who the heck is Buster Keaton":
He was an early film pioneer of the silent era—whose dead-pan comedy and amazing stunts wowed and charmed audiences of his time—and has continued to influence film-makers to this day.
From the Video Description:
"Before Edgar Wright and Wes Anderson, before Chuck Jones and Jackie Chan, there was Buster Keaton, one of the founding fathers of visual comedy. And nearly 100 years after he first appeared onscreen, we’re still learning from him. Today, I’d like to talk about the artistry (and the thinking) behind his gags.
