BUSTER KEATON: A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW, PART 1
The life of Hollywood's sad-eyed, frozen-faced comic genius is explored in a three-part documentary. Joseph Frank Keaton (1895-1966) got the childhood nickname Buster from magician Harry Houdini, who was a partner in the elder Keatons vaudeville act, of which the younger became a regular at age 4. Little Buster was often the comic foil in physical gags that laid the foundation for his eventual movie career, first in silent shorts with Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle (1917-19) and later on his own. Part 1 focuses on Keaton's silent-screen career, and includes clips from The Butcher Boy (his 1917 film bow), One Week (1920), The Goat (1921) and The Electric House (1922). They're enriched by the recollections of his contemporaries and remarks by Keaton himself in rare interview footage. Of his celebrated sight gags, Keaton once quipped: 'I always wanted an audience to outguess me— and then I'd double-cross them.' Produced for Golan TV by the award-winning team of Kevin Brownlow and David Gill (Hollywood: The Silent Years, Unknown Chaplin). Narrated by director Lindsay Anderson. (60 min.)

BUSTER KEATON: A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW, PART 1
The life of Hollywood's sad-eyed, frozen-faced comic ge-
nius is explored in a three-part documentary.
Joseph Frank Keaton (1895-1966) got the childhood nick-
name Buster from magician Harry Houdini, who was a
partner in the elder Keatons vaudeville act, of which the
younger became a regular at age 4. Little Buster was of-
ten the comic foil in physical gags that laid the foundation
for his eventual movie career, first in silent shorts with
Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle (1917-19) and later on his own.
Part 1 focuses on Keaton's silent-screen career, and in-
cludes clips from The Butcher Boy (his 1917 film bow),
One Week (1920), The Goat (1921) and The Electric
House (1922). They're enriched by the recollections of his
contemporaries and remarks by Keaton himself in rare in-
terview footage. Of his celebrated sight gags, Keaton once
quipped: 'I always wanted an audience to outguess me—
and then I'd double-cross them.'
