A movie from 90 years ago is now fortunate to see. Over the past century, the movie has been so simple, concise and hilarious at first. A generation of comedy master Keaton left us an indelible work, a film genius on a par with Chaplin. The full narrative and wonderful interpretation of "The General" brings the power of silent films to the extreme. Watched from beginning to end without blinking, I couldn't bear to miss a single detail. The chasing and escaping of the train is fast-paced, and...

Although Keaton shares the same focus on action as Chaplin, Keaton clearly uses a lot of composition, mobilizing the presence of the camera and making it more cinematic. But what really made Keaton like a real filmmaker was the money he spent. That train that fell from the bridge, which was really scrapped, heralded the loneliness of Keaton's film career, but it also heralded the future direction of cinema as an expensive...

It's so cute, it's so coherent that it tests the audience's memory... I found that not only the movies today, but all the cartoons I liked when I was a kid, are half from Keaton (the other half from...

"The Grudge" Buster Keaton's classic silent film. Buster Keaton's acting style is slightly different from Chaplin's, not as exaggerated as Chaplin's. The whole story takes place on railroad tracks and trains, which is relatively rare in the silent film...

I was cute again, covering my face. The little girlfriend in the film is really suffering with Johnny. The most extreme thing is that if you lose something wrong, your boyfriend will smash it...

Chasing a train, being chased by a train.
The chase scene wasn't a first for Buster Keaton, but he brought it to its peak during the silent era. I'm talking about The General (1926), which he wrote, directed, acted, and edited .
Although it is a long time ago, it is still a silent film, but today, "The General" is not unconventional. In a...
