Many thanks to John H. for sending me a copy of this movie.
Probably the best role that Buster Keaton had in a feature since the 30s(albeit smaller), and the beginning of a 15-year burst of renewed activity in the US that continued until his death.
Hello!
My sister in berkeley found a copy of this film in het shop.
Her husband who died in 2020 had it, my sister had no idea what it was .. The film smells faintly of vinegar, but it appears to be in good shape its on 2 reels
Is anyone interested in taking this?
Hey Robert,
Do you know if it’s 35 or 16mm? I don’t deal with film reels but I can post this information on a few places and see I can find anyone interested in it, and what price? Also, let me know if I have permission to post your email for contact purposes.
Thanks,
Jon.
