Buster Keaton (Blu-Ray) 3 Movie Collection

Eureka - Masters of Cinema The Masters of Cinema Series presents three more films directed by and starring Buster Keaton from new restorations. Our Hospitality (1923) Often cited as one of his most significant films as well as one of his funniest 1923s Our Hospitality, which Keaton co-directed with John G. Blystone, is his take on the notorious feud between the Hatfield and McCoy clans (here renamed the Canfields and the McKays). Keaton is luckless William McKay, who must journey down South to view his lacklustre inheritance, only to be seduced along the way by one of the Canfields, Virginia, who lures him to her familys house so that the men of the clan can shoot him down. But William knows that the Canfield men wont kill him as long as hes in their house, so he endeavours to stay put there, against all obstacles. With its attention to 19th-century period detail and emphasis on integrating the gags into the storyline, Our Hospitality was not just a breakthrough in Keatons career, but it was also noted even during its release as an advancement in the medium, with Variety proclaiming, It marks a step forward in the production of picture comedies. From a 2K restoration Go West (1925) Keaton is at his most stone-faced as the memorably named Friendless in Go West, an irresistible blend of deadpan darkness and spectacular comic set-pieces. Friendless abandons city life to ride the rails to an Arizona ranch, where his ineptitude at almost everything only makes his nickname even more accurate. But when his one beloved companion, a cow named Brown Eyes, seems to be headed to a slaughterhouse fate, Friendless intervenes, and the resulting cattle stampede through the streets of Los Angeles is one of Keatons most understandably famous and acclaimed sequences. From a 4K restoration College (1927) Keaton follows up The General wit
