Buster Keaton Ideas

I generally don't incorporate this variant of comedy into my films, but one potential idea I had for my "Two Cents" film involved a small visual gag in a more serious film. One of the suspects about to be interrogated by the chief detectives is running away and fearful for his own safety.

Initially, he dresses up as another detective and covers his face so he won't be revealed, the chief detective doesn't recognizes him and walks through the door next to the hiding person. The person undresses quickly but then hears the detective on the other side of the door, he quickly hugs the inside of the door as it opens so that he's hiding in plain sight.
