Buster Keatons brilliance for physical comedy highlights this silent comedy classic. A plain story about a wimpish boy who tries to impress his brutish father while falling in love with the rivals daughter. Never mind the watered down plot, it's the physical stunts of Keaton that stars. The famous wind storm finale is proof enough that he was a master of slapstick and the king of physical comedy.
