In the film, Buster Keaton, the greatest "cold-faced funnyman" in film history, plays tricks on his audience with ease, as if playing with a group of three-year-olds, when we sometimes raise our hearts because of his nervousness. When it gets to the throat, sometimes because he is laughing, but...

① Keaton was always able to make jokes with all the tools around him, whether it was a rickety train or a bicycle without wheels. Sometimes, all he needs is a hat to make people laugh. ②Standard three-act play structure: The first act takes place on a train (it has the taste of a road movie), and some small interesting scenes lay the foundation for "The General"; the second act takes place in the mansion of the feuding family, Keaton While fearing the death threat of the enemy, he maintained his gentlemanly demeanor; the third act moved the scene outdoors, and Keaton's improvisation and some magic tricks made the scenes such as bare-handed climbing, rapid "surfing", and waterfall saving beauty appear Extraordinarily thrilling, such a wonderful moment comes a little late, but it is definitely worth the wait. ③The background is set in the United States in the 19th century. Relying on two real feuding families, a modern "Romeo and Juliet" story is derived, and the ending is also rewritten for Shakespeare's play. From today's point of view, the screenwriters are also quite "postmodern".

The first half of 7.6 was very boring. I thought it was a battle of wits after reading the introduction. In the end, I still played thrilling stunts, cliffs, rapids, waterfalls, and the hero saving beauty.
