Those stunts, what a bloke, not to mention the comedy, 101 plus years ago and still entertaining. 👏👏 👏 Buster, his fellow cast and production team. may you all RiP.
This film a hundred years later is still the best! Buster Keaton is the most beloved caracter actor that ever existed. I love all his work so much. I laugh, cry and clap the whole way through. 👏👏👏
I've long noticed that the,Keaton and Harold Lloyd comedies alongside with their leading ladies,in spite of the action and technicalities of the humor ,manage to also be far more romantic than many so called straight romantic movies.
@@Jay-xg9bu he didn't have the riches of his early years, but for the last 15 years or so of his life he was doing quite well; touring Europe six months every year and working on all sorts of projects. The first part of his death announcement in the LA Times shows how busy he was www.latimes.com/local/obituaries/archives/la-me-buster-keaton-19660202-story.html
@@Jay-xg9bu Not true! He was very happily married to the love of his life, Eleanor. He had his children and grandchildren and a lovely little ranch in Woodland Hills. He worked constantly in film and TV. His movies had been discovered and saved. He received an academy award. He died knowing that his work would be remembered. And he died basically sober (had a beer each night with dinner). He always said that he had the best life
That was absolutely incredible especially when the actors had to do all the stunts themselves.. Also the organ accompaniment added a touch of how the film would have been seen originally in many of the larger theatres and was really great.
i got very lucky to see this on the big screen. i was around seven years old or so and later on watched a really great documentary on Keaton. Keaton's short films were nothing more but pure masterpieces.
He was not only a genius, but his athleticism was unbelievable... and countless scenes where he risks his life and yet retains that stoic, deadpanned expression. There will never be another like him.
These home building kits were in fact a real deal in those days. They were being offered by Sears Roebuck thru mail order catalogs and shipped to you by rail, basically 1920's Amazon. Included was the lumber, nails/screws, plumbing, and electrical systems that were new and revolutionary for that era, especially in many underdeveloped portions of the country. Such mail order program was discontinued in the 1940's due to financial scandal resulting from the Great Depression as well as the prioritizing of raw materials for the war effort.
In Keaton's worldview, a character is like a two-dimensional character wandering in a three-dimensional world. After enduring the suspense of a two-dimensional character falling into danger in a three-dimensional world, and then seeing unexpected results surprise, the audience feels as if they are in a higher world than them.
If memory serves correct Keaton started in his dad's vaudeville act where he would be thrown around on stage with special straps sewn into the back of his costumes and he just kept learning how to do physical comedy and ways to (relatively)safely do stunts.
True love! That girl is a Miracle. She never left and helped him in every way ( even pushing the whole house) through all the ups and downs. Something which doesn't exist these days
I love watching the people within the film not having a clue what to do. This was the first humans ever to experience being filmed and they didn't know how to react! Haha
Beautiful film. Still funny and smart from today's view. The train scene is even better than Fast & Furious. Every model is real. BTW, what's the name for this age's makeup of girls?
Hi Yuu, I noticed that you are very reflective about your life. I think a lot on my past as well. I think everyone wants to be known and be understood by others. Wishing you all the best in your life. I hope you get to travel soon. I too want to go to Japan, maybe next year or two.
(I'm writing this with google translate, sorry if there are grammatical mistakes) Who made the music? I have seen other videos of this short and my favorite music has been this video.
I'm not a fan of the question of what's your favorite movie, song, book or game. unless you asked about which best thing is a specific thing/genre/type/etc. however if i have to choose one movie to say it's my favorite then i will say this movie.

Amazing. This film is 100 years old and is still preserved for us to enjoy today.
I remember going to my state fair, and they were showing this film with a live piano player. It started my love for Black and White Silent Pictures.
First time I've watched a Buster Keaton movie. This was fantastic and a great intro to a legend!
I've long noticed that the,Keaton and Harold Lloyd comedies alongside with their leading ladies,in spite of the action and technicalities of the humor ,manage to also be far more romantic than many so called straight romantic movies.
RIGHT??
I really can't watch any Chaplin. Lloyd was superior in every way, imo.
having the first train miss and then the house getting hit by another just as you think it's an anti-climax is really funny
He used this gag again for the film Parlor, Bedroom and Bath (this time with a car).
There were two lines, one up and one down. The train on up line missed but the train on down line struck the house. It's not funny to think.
The bathtub scene is unforgettable. Keaton was a genius.
Sad he died with nothing to his name but a legacy in silent motion pictures

Nowadays this house will be a work of art
103 years later, this is still so funny! I loved all the stunts and gags!
A legendary short, and dear god was Sybil Seely a stunning beauty.

Fourth wall break ??? That was epic
2:30 minutes in and its already better than anything i have seen before.
Absolutely charming!!!
cap
100 years on,still a funny short😉
He was so beautiful ❤️
14:35 lol proof you dont need pixels to make a scene family oriented, 1920s style!
WHY IS THIS STILL FUNNY 😅😂
They got a 1920s IKEA house 😅
You young whippersnappers wouldn’t know, but Sears used to sell home kits and plans under the Craftsman brand. Look up Sears Kit Homes

Can we all agree that Handy Hank created the cinematic villain
I mean, he’s a true irredeemable monster 😂
"Handy Hank" - I see what they did there ; ) ha
Lol, the gravity of when he says "I'll be right down"@20:13!
And yes, pun intended 😉

Isn't that the truth
Keaton, the legendary !!!
The train at the end really bout made me fall over laughing
The master of physical comedy.
this was much more funny than most modern day comedy and enjoyed every secound of it!!
and it begins with " The wedding bells have such a sweet sound but such a sour echo.".👍😀
I'm all anticipation!😂🍿
Happy 100th years. We love you till we die
Breaking the 4th wall 100 years ago! Ahead of its time
Timeless comedy. Absolute genius
Absolutely wonderful. Thanks for posting this.
8:47 damn that need a master skill to do it

Women had that kind of staying power but when men went by the wayside (alchohol) they gave up.
Of course she stayed by his side, it was written in the script
You've just been unlucky
The train gag that caps this film was re-purposed eleven years later in Keaton's 1931 film "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath."
I just came from a showing of this movie, with a real live organist.
Such a wonderful experience!
22:49 my favorite part 🤣🤣🤣
I love silent movies❤❤❤❤
Anyone else watching this at 2x speed?? It makes it way funnier
Does anyone else feel that this film is rather surreal ?
That was Keaton's intent, I believe
Yeah that's the point
Surrealism is just comedy that isn't funny
@@Rjgj55hyrfhut wrong
I came from "Every frame a painting" channel, and I would say he is a SUPER B🎉❤
The second train lmao
live-action cartoon. I love it
This soundtrack is better than the other upload of this film. Too bad this one is loaded down with ads though!
The year is 1920 (inexplicably missing from both title and description)
100 years already. Wow!
100 Years of this film
Thanks, I was wondering about the year.
Girls of 1920 are so cute....
I wish i can return to these times ...😘😗😘😘😘😘
more like lard and blubber now, in USA, UK... - that's right wing capitalist consumerism
@@mizofan haha so true! I don't think that people care as much about a clean presentation nowadays like they did then smh
Adoro esse filmes dele, mas se você piscar na hora errada perde alguma cena. 😂
I love watching the people within the film not having a clue what to do. This was the first humans ever to experience being filmed and they didn't know how to react! Haha
She has a very special beauty, i saw many beautiful girls until now but none of them comparable with she
I love this in 24 octo
This is genius.
I don't get it. How Buster Keaton did all his stunts and survived. Absolutely unique!
Train good, house bad.
Podcast good?
Yay problems!
Horse chaotic neutral?
Portable House Co made me laugh out loud
❤ Keaton was a big inspiration for Jackie Chan. ❤
Pretty sure Buster Keaton is channeling me for this short.
I hope the house won an oscar for this work.
I can see a lot of hours of rehearsal behind these apparently simple gags
Uh not really. Most shots were taken in one take.
Yeah and he improvised them
Keaton was a MASTER. Acting since age 5.
Great quality on this one!
10:44 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I laughed so much. Wow. This was well done.
i highly recommend the new Buster biography written by James Curtis
Thanks! Have you read "my wonderful world of slapstick"? Love it. Highly recommended.
That was unbelievably entertaining.
Beautiful film. Still funny and smart from today's view. The train scene is even better than Fast & Furious. Every model is real. BTW, what's the name for this age's makeup of girls?
i am filled with joy
this movie is genius
How I trust this??? Wonderful movie... magnificent script....
Trust what?
Que grande me encantan estas películas ☺️☺️
My favorite part was when Laurel and Hardy made an appearance!
Lol the train scene 😂
19:31 ここ可愛すぎて好き
Back when you could build without permits.
I wish to go back to those days.
Capolavoro del cinema
Okay some of that stunt work would get your studio shut down today lol.

Puts a whole new meaning to flat pack lol
Best stunt man ever lived I think most of Charlie chaplain stunt he had done it bravo
A-ma-zing!
5:38 OMG that's too dangerous
You've seen nothing yet
Very interesting but how sorrowful. 😭
Mood me coming from school
They have all died and we will die one day. This is life.
in a very hard moments they could action those funny films
ah look its the fucking philosopher, just what we needed
@@jamescrab4110 yeah, that's not philosophy, that's just how death works.

C'était trop bien ! ❤

😂
use the fence as ladder. smart!
bless this mess.
Who I'd the musical score? Sounds similar to the score of another Buster Keaton short, The Boat. I love both tunes.
Wonderful, but shouldn't have commercials!
2:22 😂
what a film ❤ from bangladesh
Buster and Sybil.were so cute together
Incrível tinha Muita criatividade
Era un genio pero en mi opinión creo que le faltaba la gracia que tenía Chaplin. pero era increíble sus acrobacias
