Produced by Paramount Pictures, it was described by the New York Times as “sublimely inaccurate” regarding details of Keaton’s life. Keaton was paid $50,000 for the rights to his life story, allowing him to remain financially solvent for the remainder of his life.
Buster Keaton leaves his family vaudeville act for the movies. He starts out as a bit player but quickly becomes famous as he acts in and directs his own films. Casting director Gloria Brent is in love with him, but he favours a starlet. When she rejects him, he starts drinking, a problem which only worsens when sound destroys silent cinema and his career. Will Gloria’s love and his desire to make people laugh win out?
