#BehindTheScenes
#SteamboatBillJr (1928)
The effete son of a cantankerous riverboat captain comes to join his father's crew.

Shooting #BusterKeaton

The rest of the hurricane sequence was also extremely dangerous and required 6 airplane propellers blowing at full tilt while being powered by engines

The infamous doorway stunt that just s single wrong move would have meant a 1 ton house facade would have come crashing down on Buster Keaton (https://youtu.be/9NapyrF31DI?si=OqqqzOaFhPIZSixu)

The way the tools fall out of the bread never fails to make me laugh😂

I hope one day everyone is held as lovingly as Buster Keaton holds this prop loaf of bread

Marion Byron was only 16 when she made “Steamboat Bill, Jr.”. Unfortunately, she couldn’t swim so her stunts had to be done with help from Keaton’s younger sister Louise

“Don’t talk to me or my giant father ever again!”

that said, Buster Keaton was actually a big fan of the instrument and played it during the entirety of his life (Buster Keaton playing & singing with Cliff Edwards in “Doughboys” (1939) https://youtu.be/ouwBATLoF0o?si=RipN1cVKEGp26fwy)
#SilentFlickerSunday #SteamboatBillJr #BusterKeaton #ukulele

Apparently, playing the ukulele was a fad with college and prep school students around the turn of the century… similar to the late 00s but with less “sad renditions of hip hop songs by white college students” (i hope so, anyway)
