I don’t always get someone else to autograph my picture, but when I do I make sure they write the K backwards…first time I’ve seen an example like this!

The Swedish posters for Buster’s movies never disappoint with the creativity! ‘Battling Butler’ is ‘Male & Lightweight’ & someday, just like Pinocchio he’ll be a real boy…uh boxer!

HB Warner eyeballing Buster Keaton in ‘Sunset Boulevard’, 1950. Stare all you like, that waxwork sure ain’t gonna melt under that gaze!

It’s all done with smoke & mirrors - well, in this case, a sheet of glass in this imaginative interlude in ‘The Gold Ghost’, 1934. Placed in front of the camera lens & angled just so, it would reflect players otherwise out of sight on the set. Smart shooting ;)

Buster Keaton is a work of art! Although in some of these he does look like he’s silently judging…try it yourself with any face here: ai-art.tokyo/en/

It’s times like this that Buster Keaton was likely glad to be partially deaf…on the set of ‘It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World’, 1963 with Sid Caesar & Phil Silvers.

A comically violent example of undercranking in this fight scene from ‘The Hayseed’, 1919, which speeds up the action…not quite ‘Raging Bull’ is it? ;)

Huge thanks to Jiving Jitterbug for spotting Eleanor Keaton, the third Mrs Buster Keaton in the line up of ‘Bathing Beauty’, 1944. And if she stayed on her spot, I believe this is her moment diving in <3
