This Day in Buster…July 27, 1882 Donald Crisp is born. The ‘director’ of “The Navigator,” Buster Keaton told him the picture was finished just so he’d leave & he could reshoot it. Donald’s face was immortalized however, in this scene… #oldhollywood #busterkeaton #damfino

This Day in Buster...July 28, 1932 The Sacramento Bee mentions Buster Keaton arriving in San Franciso by train, " 'I can't find my ukulele!' he wailed. He never did find it, eventually dismounting with a tin yacht in his arms. He didn't explain its significance." #oldhollywood

¿Recordáis la famosa escena del camarote de los hermanos Marx en “Una noche en la ópera”? La idea parte de Buster Keaton que trabajaba para la MGM como creador de gags. En “El Cameraman”, Keaton ya hizo esto 👇🏻

This Day in Buster…May 9, 1951 “The Buster Keaton Show,” AKA “Life with Buster Keaton,” premieres. The LA Times got a preview two days before & urged readers to “drag the kids away from the wild westerns at 7:30 tonight, sit back and enjoy a real slapstick Keaton show.”
