0ur opinion:Description:Something appealing. Something appalling. Something for everyone a comedy tonight! '0ne ofthe hottest burlesque shows that ever hit Broadway' (Time) comes to the screen showcasing the enormous talents of Tony AwardÂ(r) winner Zero Mostel, Phil Silvers, Jack Gilford (Cocoon), Buster Keaton and Michael Crawford (Broadway's 'The Phantom of the 0pera'). Featuring keenly clever tunes like 'Comedy Tonight' and 'Lovely,' this wild Stephen Sondheim musical about a raucous gaggle of ancient Romans is a 'flip, glib and sophisticated, yet rump-slapping bawdy and fast-paced look at the seamy underside ...

The Art of Buster Keaton (The General / Sherlock, Jr. / Our Hospitality / The Navigator / Steamboat Bill Jr. / College / Three Ages / Battling Butler / Go West / The Saphead / Seven Chances / 21 Short Films)
»rank: 15753
0ur opinion: :Buster Keaton was arguably the cinema's first modernist, an old-fashioned romantic with a 2Oth-century mind behind a deadpan visage. His films brim with some of the most breathtaking stunts and ingenious gags ever put on film, all perfectly engineered to look effortless.

Keaton warped gags until they left the plane of reality in such shorts as The Playhouse (1921) and The Frozen North (1922), and takes ...
