- Synopsis:
Manic stunt work, elaborate sight gags and mind-boggling mechanical comedy are just some of Keaton's work featured in these movies. Known the world round as the 'Stone' face comedy actor, with charming moments of intimate humour flavoured with rich pathos, uniquely graceful and characteristically hilarious. 'That's Buster Keaton'
Battling Butler (1926)Keaton stars as Alfred Butler, a delicate man whose father decides to toughen him up by sending him to the country. There he is mistaken for a renowned boxer "Battling Butler".
