Steamboat Bill, Jr. (1928)
Movie
Released
Keaton's uncertain place beside his imposing father gives the early physical business a social rhythm before the storm radically changes the scale. The famous house-front stunt is only one part of a sustained rearrangement of the town. Seek a complete restored version so the quieter preparation has time to make the spectacle funnier.
