While Steamboat Bill Sr. is a hard-working steamboat captain, his son is the opposite: educated, accident-prone, and simple-minded. However, Steamboat Bill Jr. might be able to assist his father in overcoming a rival local business—and win the affections of the rival’s daughter while he’s at it.
Buster at his peak! One of the most beloved, iconic comedies in a career full of them, Steamboat Bill Jr. was Buster Keaton’s last independent production before joining MGM, and contains some of the slapstick master’s most elaborate set-pieces. Silent comedy neophytes, step right up!
