The Navigator Movie Review 1924

Ever the quick thinker, Keaton actually bought a steamer headed for the scrap heap and used it to film an almost endless string of sight gags. Rejected by a socialite, millionaire Keaton finds himself alone with her on the abandoned boat. As he saves her from various and sundry perils, the gags and thrills abound--including one stunt that was inspired by a near-accident on the set. Too bad they don't make 'em like this anymore. Silent.
