jack m Very late getting to this, but I really enjoyed it. Nobody was better than Buster Keaton. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/24 Full Review Audience Member BUSTER KEATON RIDES AGAIN [1965]: one of the last films Buster Keaton made was the 1965 Canadian colour short THE RAILRODDER and on the production of that short was a documentary crew filming the filming of the said short. This documentary shows the great silent comedian in his twilight years shooting another silent gag-film, Keaton himself is amazing to watch in the behind the scenes footage seeing the true personality of Keaton. In every scene he is in Keaton (like in his on screen antics) wears that stone-face in any situation. The documentary offers an insight into Keaton's rise and fall as an actor and at the same time showing him on set of his final feature. This is one neat little documentary worthy of a rating of 70%. Buster Keaton's THE RAILRODDER [1965]: This little colour short shows an elderly Keaton performing all of his neat little tricks on screen for one final time. Keaton wears his stone-face and Pork-Pie hat in a trademark manor while he performs non-stop silent gags across Canada in a little rail car. This short is a best entertaining to view but said to know Keaton would die the following year. 60% Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is the documentary you wish they could have made when Keaton was filming his slapstick comedies in the 20s, but still, it's interesting to see how he works even if it's the silly movie he made in the 60s that wasn't so funny. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Kind of hard to review this as my Grampa worked on it. But I'll give it an okay. The scenes with Keaton's career and whatnot were really good, but sometimes when Keaton's arguing with people or rambling, it can be a bit hard to watch. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Strange that this documentary of the making of "The Railrodder" is about twice as long as the short itself, but it does have a bit more to offer the audience. We get a glimpse of Keaton's career, early life, and his last years unbeknown by the filmmakers at the time. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member The documentary alone is worth the $. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
