Buster Keaton Performing Stunts in The General
April 20, 2010 By 25 Comments

Just watched The General and really enjoyed it. I agree however with the commenter below – I wouldn’t compare Chaplin to Keaton, just too different. Personally I prefer Chaplain but The General raised Buster Keaton up in my mind. Check out my film study blog Cinema Cram or find us on Facebook – search Cinema Cram
@SR722 Jackie Chan paid HUGE amounts of homage to Mr. Keaton. Matched by few perhaps, but Jackie Chan brought hundreds of great physical comedy gags. Of course it is all owed to Buster Keaton, I’m just saying Jackie Chan is just as awesome in a different but familiar way.
@DonFarshido a good point well made
I always loved Buster. I always saw him as a genius. No matter how many times I see him doing stuff like this, I am in awe. It never gets old for me.

btw where did that cannon come from?
he wanted to shoot over his own train to hit the one in front of him…. but…. it worked a bit different
Keaton was one of the first filmmakers to make long outdoor movies and back then, it was embarrasing to do those since the equipement was extremely huge and heavy.
Ahead of his time because having total control on a movie of your own is something you can’t do anymore today for reasons not worth to explain. An heritage I guess that’s not seen on TV quite often.
when that water hit him it broke his neck he didn’t realise for about twenty years or so
why load the cannon? makes no sence!?
jackie chan pwned him.
1 to many greats to be REAL!
the original Jackie Chan haha
I sincerely hope you’re not being serious.
