VHS Movie Reviews of Buster Keaton - A Hard Act to Follow [VHS]
Movie Review: Buster Keaton, a Hard Act to Follow Vol 1
Summary: 5 Stars
Kevin Brownlow, a reknown film historian, collaborated on this 3 part documentary of Keaton's life and work. (Brownlow helped restore the long-lost print of Daydreams, and collaborated with Keaton's widow Eleanor on a picture book of his life.) Volume 1 is delightful--very well done. There are many production stills and anecdotes about the making of Keaton's films that are not available elsewhere.Movie Review: A Must Have
Summary: 5 Stars
If you love Keaton you will love this documentary. It is just a must have for any Keaton Fan.Movie Review: Just Stunning...
Summary: 5 Stars
I can only second what the others have said-the whole thing is wonderful. Too bad it looks like we'll have no DVD release of this-I wouldn't part with my LD's of this for anything.Movie Review: The best Keaton documentary available
Summary: 5 Stars
In the same style seen in "Unknown Chaplin", this video set shows the complete life of Buster Keaton using rarely seen footage. A facsinating work!! I would like to see a DVD version made.Movie Review: A MASTERPIECE FEATURING THE MASTER
Summary: 5 Stars
I have watched this video countless times and each time it's as fresh as the time before. The genius of Buster Keaton is told through countless interviews with former friends, actors, and directors. Keaton was a perfectionist up to the day he died. His work shows it.
