  6. They kept the camera rolling b/c once he started, Keaton was indefatigable. He’d often re-start scenes to give another take on the script or to immediately revise his previous interpretation (Photos: Buster Keaton conferring w/Samuel Beckett and director Alan Schneider on the set of “Film” c.1965)

  7. It’s said that Buster Keaton and Samuel Beckett didn’t get along but moreso it was just that they worked in companionable silence. (Photo: Samuel Beckett examining portions of “Film” c. 1965)

  14. I somehow missed this hardback release last year, paperback slated for spring release #AtriaBooks : Dana Stevens's Camera Man, about one of my household gods, Buster Keaton, and his importance in the evolution of early film.

    Added to my tottering TBR pile (thanks to our Simon & Schuster rep, Nicola), will look forward to this, and doubtless review for @PhilEdwards 's Live For Films in due course.
