Keaton, with Donald Crisp credited, 1924. He and Kathryn McGuire are left alone on an ocean liner meant for hundreds. Metro released it. The gags are scale: a kitchen built for a crew, a deck that will not end, breakfast served with a block and tackle. The diving-suit reel was shot in a tank. It was his biggest money picture of the silent period.
