One of Buster Keaton’s most celebrated silent comedies, The Cameraman (1928) showcases the legendary physical comedy and innovative storytelling that defined his career. Keaton stars as Buster, a humble tintype photographer who falls for a secretary, Sally (Marceline Day), working at MGM. Determined to impress her, he trades in his still camera for a motion picture camera and sets out to prove himself as a real newsreel cameraman. As he fumbles through a series of hilarious misadventures, his tenacity and ingenuity shine through. Restored by The Criterion Collection, this edition preserves the brilliance of one of cinema’s silent-era gems.
