If seeing a true classic is not incentive enough to watch it - then watch it so you will get a least one question right on my Editor Award Winning sploofus quiz.

I love Keaton but it's too late for me tonight.

I've got every feature Keaton made before 1930 on DVD (and most of the shorts too), and Steamboat Bill, Jr. is one of his best. I love my "The Art of Buster Keaton" set: http://www.dvdplanet.com/details.cfm/info/KIN02312DVD

I've also got a few other DVDs of stuff of his that is not in this set. The man was a genius...

As I said before, Sherlock, Jr., is my favorite.

ARUGH - sent too fast.

My favorite part of Sherlock, Jr., is when the villian puts the jewelry in Buston Keaton's coat pocket, in an effort to make him look bad with the girl.

It's nice to know that James Cameron used the classics when writing the script for Titanic.
