Buster Keaton was a renowned actor, filmmaker, and stuntman during the silent era of Hollywood. Keaton's films were characterized by his deadpan expression, physical comedy, and inventive use of props and sets. He was known for performing dangerous stunts, such as hanging from a clock tower in "Safety Last!" or dodging a collapsing house in "Steamboat Bill Jr."
Despite
the risks, Keaton performed his own stunts, without the aid of doubles or
special effects. His meticulous planning and precision made his stunts appear
effortless and added to the comedic effect of his films. His innovative techniques and fearless
approach to filmmaking remain a testament to his enduring influence on cinema.
