Good afternoon, folks. We have a great centennial for you 100 Years Ago, Today - (Thursday) March 8th, 1923: "The Love Nest," staring silent film great Buster Keaton, debuts. If you love old maritime footage - and great deadpan comedy- this film is a must. Keaton's character is jilted by his love, and runs away to sea, ending up on a whaler with a sadistic captain who dispatches Crewmen over the side for the most menial infractions. Keaton, in true form, navigates the insanity with great hilarity. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, he scuttles the ship, and escapes in a lifeboat. He then drifts, until tying up to a floating US Navy target rack, and promptly goes fishing. There is absolutely stellar US Navy Battleship target practice footage, as Keaton is oblivious to 12 and 14-inch shells landing around him, thinking the fish are just biting well. I won't tell you how it ends- go watch for yourselves and enjoy a wonderful comedy short that, although 100 years old today, is timeless. (You can find it on youtube) 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: PubDom, #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #battleoftheatlantic #busterkeaton #thelovenest #centuryold #deadpan #deadpancomedy #vintagenavy #oldnavy #usnavy #unitedstatesnavy #battleships #greatfootage #historicfilm #classicmovie #classiccomedy (at Fort Hancock, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiRRgyg60j/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
