Even though I'm a huge fan of Charlie Chaplin (I basically grew up with the guy), I must confess, I have always been kind of oblivious about Buster Keaton. Indeed, so far I only saw 'The General' which didn't really blow me away (but I definitely need to re-watch it thought). Anyway, this was my second movie starring Keaton and I really enjoyed it.

Indeed, so far I only saw 'The General' which didn't really blow me away (but I definitely need to re-watch it thought). Anyway, this was my second movie starring Keaton and I really enjoyed it. Basically, the plot is some kind of typical 'Romeo and Juliet' tale and it is a good excuse to get some funny jokes and spectacular stunts. And that's also probably the reason I still prefer Chaplin to Keaton. Indeed, even though Chaplin's work was also constantly hilarious, there was also this amazing poetic tone and/or some really deep thoughtfulness and I kind of missed that in Keaton's movies. I mean, don't misunderstand, it was a really fun” read more

"Keaton tarjoaa jälleen parasta osaamistaan, vaikkakin huikeita stuntteja ei tällä kertaa tarjoilla liukuhihnavauhtia. Busterin kikkailut höyrylaivan kanssa ja pyörremyrskysekoilut ovat kuitenkin kaikki ihan klassista matskua."

"06.07. Digibox, 1st viewing DIRECTED BY Charles Reisner Beginning to love Buster Keaton here! His face is pretty much perfect and his body comedy is on an other level. The storm scene was quite jaw-dropping - especially for a film this old. How did they come up with this stuff? "
