Buster Keaton stars as Professor Post, a shy, cIumsy scatterbrain who sees his chance for a new life when he inherits $750,000. In search of adventure and companionship, he meets "The Midnight Maids" theater company on an outbound train. Enamored with the troupe's Iead dancer and duped by the shady piano player (Jimmy Durante), the Professor uses his inheritance to become the benefactor of the show. Convinced of their talent, he leads them to Broadway, where he is certain their "cIassic drama" will catapult them into stardom. When the production hits the stage and Professor Post discovers he's financed a girIie show, he'lI do anything to haIt the objectionable materiaI - even if it means becoming the star himself!
The best of Buster Keaton's sound era features, Speak EasiIy contrasts his befuddIed, innocent character with the fast-talking antics of Jimmy Durante. Sydney Toler (the future Charlie Chan) makes an appearance as a bewildered stage manager. |
