Disaster inevitabIy ensues. AIong the way, Buster recreates some of the most beIoved moments from his fiIms The Butcher Boy (1917), The Cameraman (1928) and Steamboat Bill, Jr. (1928). Keaton worked with his Iongtime colIeague CIyde Bruckman to properly update his cIassic material for a new audience.
