Buster Keaton was one of a kind . The mold was broke when Keaton was born. Perfection at it's finest !!!! Those facial expressions tell it all, no need for words. Such a good looking man and a very expressive man. !!!!!!
Buster Keaton didn't do facial expressions. He kept the same stone faced look throughout his entire career and there's scant few examples of him either on or off the screen looking any different. I should know, I was Buster's Pork Pie hat.
@@goatwarrior3570 Then you had a poor view of his face, being on his head. In his early stuff he emoted quite a lot
@@satori4183 No, he really did not. Even in his Fatty Arbuckle days he maintained the classic Keaton stone face. It was part of his trademark, so much so that there were (false) rumors that he was contractually obliged to not smile. I'm sure you can drag up a split second here and there in a couple of films where his expression looked slightly different but by and large his facial expressions were consistently deadpan throughout his career. As I said, I was his hat.
@@goatwarrior3570 Well, hat, suggested viewing for you is Oh Doctor!, His Wedding Night, The Cook, The bell boy. He basically cries his way through the first one and is definitely not consistently deadpan in the others, but smiles, laughs, is angry, etc. Admittedly much of this was before he got you, so I can see how it was overlooked 🎩
@@satori4183 Yeh, if you combine all of those you get maybe 60 seconds worth of Keaton showing emotion. I think there's more facial expression from Arbuckle in the first 5 minutes of Wedding night than in Keaton's entire career.
On a related note, I wonder if Roscoe or Buster would ever have guessed that more than a century later people would be arguing over their facial expressions.
Taking my hat off in honor of Buster Keaton.
Nearly a hundred years later and as great as ever. Buster Keaton was a genius with so many talents.

The little bits of audience reaction are wonderful. Wish there were more films from this era up with such touches. Loved the performance!
David Loomis thank you so much David!! Had an absolute blast playing this. Time for another one soon
Film with Buster Keaton plus your music = perfection! Thank you so very, very much!
@@WalterJoergLangbein
You're so right! The score really enhances the movie.
Buster Keaton was the father of modern cinematography.
Agree with others- great piano and movie of course! Great and sad at the same time that people are just discovering for themselves this mountain of a comedian, Buster Keaton. He was really the best ahead of time
Au contraire: Keaton wasn't ahead of his time. He was 100% of his time, which is one reason he still fascinates. Unfortunately, Hollywood hacks have clung to his narrative tricks for the past 90 years.
Very true, very true indeed!
Leo G I completely agree but I just need to ask, what’s your surname. Cause my name is sooooooooo similar to yours
Great performances by you and Buster!! I'm just discovering his work now... what a pioneer!
I like the music! However there was an opportunity missed at 19:08 to go 'KA-BLAM' all over the keyboard as Keaton falls on the piano 😀
Satori I missed so many!
@@ashribar Brilliantly played, congratulations!
I disagree. Why should the musical score sounds mysterious and dissident? It does provide a mood, but I don't think it was a one Keaton was thinking of!
This music is fantastic. It relates to the movie extremely well. Better than any I've ever watched it with.
Thank you so much! SO kind of you
Absolutely ! the music is perfect for this movie ! 32:50 !!
I agree!
My favorite part is where Buster's "spirit" leaves his body and somehow ends up in the movie! I heard that Sherlock Jr was the inspiration of The Purple Rose of Cairo starring Jeff Daniels.
Talented Technicians &
Talented Actor Keaton .
29:55 to 30:20
I am blown away by that trick ! The identical furniture on each side and the two curtains moving the same way...
It is so perfect, you don't even wonder why the 'mirror' is so big in that house ...
Such an incredible combination of creativity along with athleticism!
This is the childhood of cinematography, and the most important events take place in childhood. Everything in this movie is so pure and brilliant. We wandered away from this purity, unfortunately. But it's great that we still can have this example before our eyes. Separate gratitude for the music, it is a work of a real master. Hats off.
Well, at least the girl was smart enough to check with the pawnbroker about the ticket.
And the whole movie within a movie section is a creative idea, especially with Keaton's character entering the movie. Very fantastic and dream-like. With a healthy dose of wish-fulfillment, as Keaton's character wants to be a great detective like Sherlock Holmes.
And I rather like the music as being more soundtrack-ish, applying specific musical ideas to the film, instead of merely doing some ragtime song over and over again to evoke the silent film era. I also seem to hear the faintist echo of a laugh track at certain points in the film.
Plenty of Keaton's trademark stunts and gags, like running across the top of the train, or using the traffic turnstile to get down from the roof of a building.
40:27 Oh look, an amphibious car long before James Bond ever had one!
41:20 Or, maybe not so amphibious.
Great film to start a day with. Love how his films are timeless
A masterpiece. The editing is great, the story moving.

Why not high score in imdb ?
@@DIN-GOD-OF-ARTIST You think 8.2/10 is not a high score?
@@Stormfox93 ahhhhhh he call "masterpiece" will be 9+
Талантливый чувак* моё недавнее открытие* простые люди в его фильмах такие несчастные как и он сам* но добрые внутри* прекрасный образ*
Man, this is brilliant (both the film and your performance)!! Hats off to you, Sir (and Keaton, of course)!
Hazel Chief-rabbit ohh thank you so much!!
@@ashribar you're most welcome! 🙂
ua-cam.com/channels/KFSxzTzcKQ3SlsIAHV28DA.html
Special effects are awesome. But this is a work of art!
B k was iron men and wonder actor God rest his soul
All his tricks were awsome! My favourite one is begining in 35:00 . I love all his films, I love him and his films most of all.
Keaton practiced for hours to get those pool shots, and they're all real. He learned how to do all of them just for the movie.
Buster Keaton, the perfectionist!
Have you ever watched a mediocre visual artist on a digitizer? 😜
Are those just in one take ..i mean one shot without any retake?
@@assassinraj9680 I'm not sure about that. He didn't like to do retakes, so I suspect he probably didn't try filming it until he could do it without retakes.
Amazing. Thank you.
Ни говоря о сейчас как все эти трюки кажутся удивительными, потрясающе сыгранными, мастерски исполненными, да еще и на фоне интересного, хоть и простого незамысловатого сюжета, но сколько их вложено на минуту времени! Так тогда, наверно, вообще это смотрелось как чудеса, волшебство! Китон 1 из выдающихся первопроходцев того времени в этом направлении приключенческо-трюковом кино! Браво!
I Never get tired of this movie!!!! Thanks for posting it.
Holly Bischoff welcome! More soon to come
That is very good news!
some fine piano work by Ashley to accompany a great film-no doubt Buster would've had something similar back in the day.
Also, a very funny movie-"describe it." at 4:32 had me rolling.
twentington thank you! I sure hope Buster would have liked it 🎵
Sorry pal, but there are no contemporaneous silent film scores that are at all similar to this one
Most underrated actor
undervalued? you're wrong !
Buster Keaton at the time was a movie superstar.
Buster Keaton was actually only forgotten over the years, but he was not an undervalued actor.
I love this film so much. I need to watch it again.
1. Thanks for posting this awesome video
2. Thanks for adding in the sound affects of the laughing of audience
3. Don't know who it was but I want to thank the person that played the piano
(Awesome job)
😇👍🏼
This is so beautiful. I can't tire Keaton. What a delicate piano. Thanks to Ashley Hribar.
Задумка, эффекты, игра - шедевр на века
Around 34:20 and then about a minute later, Buster uses some stage illusions. The camera doesn’t cut away because Buster wanted to rely on “real” stage illusions rather than trick camera edits. Source of my information: Jim Kline’s book The Complete Films of Buster Keaton. These two illusions would likely have lost most of their impact if there had been camera edits breaking up the action.
T Cee wow! Nice 👍!
Thank you for sharing your gift with us, as well as the great Mr. Keaton ❤. Magical!
phenomenal storyline 🙂, camera 😗 and actors. ♥️
another gem by Buster Keaton.
So refreshing to see and HEAR a Keaton video without some modern jazz or weird musical interpretation on it... This was top class... :)
Wow, what a masterpiece
Impressed.
SENCILLAMENTE GENIAL..!!
THANKS, BUSTER.
I love the silent films. I enjoy watching body language at a comical level.
Wonderful! Great movie, so emotional, so funny...
Love it so much! Great work :D
J. T. Merci!
You played the piano yourself?
At the beginning it was noticeably not the original, but by the end it had completely seamlessly become a perfect match. A
Excellent movie as well. It just ramped up and became more and more perfect by the end
Cheers for your message. Yep that’s me playing, the score was improvised
I loved the background music.
*Awesooooommmmmeee*
First time I ever saw this buster Keaton was an absolute genius unbelievable this is the greatest it's definitely one of the best movies ever made it's fantastic all his own stunts you never believed that you know in that water where you got out of that water he actually broke his neck there and completed the film he was absolutely great no question about it anybody who hasn't seen this definitely should
12:29
The paper is signed “Will Smith”
"William"
"Smith"
What are the odds??? 😲 😄
Elon Musk is a damn common name, too.
My favorite silent movie ever! Effects were so unexpected, plot always engaging, ending very funny.
KEATON, EL MAGNÍFICO...!!
Absolute brilliance and not a computer anywhere. When Keaton fell off that water tower in the flood of water he landed on a rail and broke his neck but didn`t know that at the time.
I was interrupted halfway thru and had to find your channel again. Turns out, many channels have "Sherlock Jr"... but only your music is so distinctive and fits the story so beautifully.
That is so kind ! Thank you so much
This is beyond perfection
Oh yeah paby
Outstanding performance by buster Keaton 👌👌👍👍
one of, if not the best ending in cinematic history
Buster Keaton kino sa'natining haqiqiy dahosi !!! Tengsiz ijodkor va haqiqiy aktyordir.Hech kim hech qachon Uningchalik kino suratga ola olmaydi endi !!
This is so awesome! Thank you, you have a new subscriber.

Outstanding job sir!
SilverStrike thank you! Stay tuned for my next film, project The Cabinet of Dr Caligari !
Sounds great!
A masterpiece
Brilliant !!!
This was one of his best movies!
Amazing how Buster Keaton broke his neck on that train stunt with the water and he did not know it.
This is ls soo cool
The greatest film. And beautiful accompaniment, man!
Thanks so much!
Bloody genius
thank you i like it sooooo much
Концовка вообще шикарная!)
Brilliant.
Great
The ending is just so sweet and funny !!! Take notes guys. 😂
few comments on the ending, which is true the editing and kearon's stunts are surreal for the time, but we want to talk about the originality of the ending
It is wonderful for me.
It is wonderful!
he's a genius : )
love
Buster a amazing actour, He is especially like Jackie Chan, and his movements are particularly dangerous and very funny, so his personal actor ability is beyond my imagination.I love you Buster !
...just THE BEST. :)
Thanks for this. Any info on the score? Who composed it and when?
You're welcome Andre! this was improvised so there is no score. Cheers, A
@@ashribar harayays
Fantastic! Now this wonderful movie is perfect!
He has beautiful eyes🤗
Magnífico Buster 💣💥🖤

I'd there anywhere I can get this sound track? It's sort of haunting, and very beautiful.
Molly R. Goates hello dear Molly! Thanks for asking about the score.. this was fully improvised but I may one day write out some of these themes .. I’ll make it available on my website ! Cheers Ash
@@ashribar Okay! Thank you! I especially liked the theme you played during the beginning credits.
I also really like the theme you played during the pool game.
Do all silent films scare you, I address to The Pianist who is providing the score? Comedy is not mysterious and otherworldly like the emotional effect I get from listening to this score. From the score alone one might think that poor Buster it's playing Aleister Crowley! I saw this filming at theater in Los Angeles some years back with Robert Israel providing alive musical score. That was really impressive
Thanks for this comment! Not all silent films. This one was essentially an improv so it did take me on a mysterious turn and I'm sure the Scriabin sonatas and Frederic Rzewski I played in the first half influenced this direction. The film does, to me at least, have some mysterious qualities, the dream like states and effects and the detective vibe.. but of course, it's pure Keaton at heart with high energy stunts. Genius! I bet the R. Israel performance was splendid! I love his work
30:22 That was so optimistically poetic. If only I could share that view.
39:58 Wow, I recognize this in point&click adventure game writing. When you are near the finale and you got that item in your inventory that has been with you since the beginning and you nearly forgot about it.

Este sonho foi bom ....
Girls from 1920 were so beautiful...🥰🥰🥰
Why is this cropped to fit 16:9?
Was this the movie he got injured in. During the train scene and the water?
love film blank white
but the montage in the cinema scene its incredible
this video nice and funny and buster is nice and funny and really love this video
5:40 Black Larsen!
The steam train scene when the water pipe shoots water all over him is where he breaks his neck. 15.20 He just carried on and didn't realize until later in his life.
Is this where he got his neck injury? from the train?
The Old James Bond Great Actors these are... Salute to them...

У стойки, в сухом задымленьи ночи,
на выданном круге, под лампами, дымом
живой силуэт каблуками стучит,
улыбкой играет, как женские мимы.
В рассыпчатой иве белёсых волос,
в застывшей, пуховой, пружинистой лаве,
в букете из ниточек тонких полос
блуждают лучи и объём поправляют.
А бриз и круженья порхающих вьюг
взбивают те локоны, трогая плечи,
а музыка радует губы и слух,
а зал осветляют настенные свечи.
Спектакль красив и занятно хорош,
подвластен мне зрителю, как режиссёру.
Червонные стены, узорные сплошь.
В восторге вкушаю развратную пору.
Обычно багровым рисуют нам ад.
Но тут это рай лишь для избранных, щедрых.
Вдруг тихнет мотив, пригашается лад,
и ангел дистанцию рушит по метру...
Hard to believe it is 100 years old movie.
Who is the lady?❤
