Sherlock Jr. / The Navigator with James Urbaniak

By Blank Check with Griffin & David

12:00 AM EDT on May 14, 2023

Buster Keaton released two features in 1924 - “Sherlock Jr.”, a film that was considered a commercial disappointment at the time but has grown in stature over the past century, and “The Navigator'', a colossal box office hit that hasn’t aged nearly as well. Actor and lover of old-timey things James Urbaniak makes his long-awaited debut on the pod (originally promised back in our Shyamalan days!) and we’re getting into the billiards bits, boat gags, razor puns, and movie magic that make this double feature so special.Guest Links: See James in The Country Club as well as Venture Bros: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart when they come out.Join our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.Follow us @blankcheckpod on Instagram, Threads, Facebook and X!
