The Great Stone Face...The Little Boy Who Couldn't Be Damaged...whatever you call him, Buster Keaton is one of the most important figures in film history, and we couldn't be happier to be spotlight him in our latest series PODCAST JR.
Buster Keaton released two features in 1924 - "Sherlock Jr.", a film that was seen as a commercial disappointment at the time but has grown in stature over the century, and "The Navigator'', a huge box office hit that hasn't aged as well.
One of narrative cinema's earliest training sequences, and one of cinema's most famous trains - that's right, we're covering Buster Keaton's 1926 films BATTLING BUTLER and THE GENERAL.
Our Buster Keaton series comes to a conclusion as his period of creative independence does, with his first two features for MGM: THE CAMERAMAN and SPITE MARRIAGE.
