The Buster Keaton Story (1957)
Very Entertaining Film
I have just acquired a print of this movie on film and it is highly entertaining. I have read some reviews slating this because it shows Buster started in a circus. That is just not true, this film depicts the true fact that Buster worked with his parents in Vaudeville. In the first half of the film there is a composite short titled 'The criminal'. This takes some expertly executed routines from Cops and Sherlock Jnr. Overall highly recommended except it is not on any media. I was fortunate in obtaining a pristine original 16mm print taken from the original 35mm negative - stunning and wonderful to watch on a projector as it was always meant to be seen.
School for Scoundrels (1960)
Classic Comedy
This is classic British comedy at its finest. Having watched it dozens of times over the years it was only the other day when I noticed the following gaff: Early in the film when Palfrey has been stitched up by Delauney at the restaurant he is outside with April when Delauney toots his wolf whistle horn on his 'new Belini 2.6' sports car. He stops and offers one of them a lift making the point that he can 'only give one of you a lift as its a two-seater'.
Later in the film when Palfrey fresh from the college of lifemanship is winding Delauney up by keeping him waiting outside his flat to take him to a return tennis match when Palfrey does get in Delauney's two seater Delauney clearly annoyed with Palfrey sternly remarks 'come on we are picking April up on the way' and after much ado on the roads when they get to April's, tired of waiting she has made her own way. Good job really as three in a two seater doesn't work.
Overall this is wonderful movie with great performances from all and as for the odd blunder well its hard cheese really!
