Buster Blurbs

Do the leading ladies in his movies ever notice that he never smiles? That would get kind of weird for me after a while.

Whenever someone asks me who Buster Keaton was, I tell them he was a supermodel from the '20's. Sometimes I say he was a bricklayer famous for his dazzling smile.

Everything is an understatement with Buster, even his sex appeal.

The girl who played Agnes in "The Saphead" looks like Geena Davis.

Which movie am I thinking of: Willie Canfield ties himself to the end of a rope and plunges into a river.

He'd make a good billygoat.

If what Fred wossname says is true, that all angels look like Harpo Marx, then all the aliens must look like Buster Keaton.

What is considered "genius" today was merely common sense to him. :)

I was before, and am today, a grouchy, picky child.
As parents tried to coax me, more infrequently I smiled.
I loved a hearty laugh, so long as it was on my terms.
Manipulative grown-ups I revered as less than germs.
I swooned at Johnny 5, and K.I.T. (the talking car) all day!
And played with wires and batteries (my dolls got thrown away).
A leap and kick from Jackie Chan was graceful as a dance.
and
When Buster Keaton came along... I didn't stand a chance.
