Question about a cilp....


There's a clip that is shown (I believe it's the very last clip shown) where the front part of a house falls on top of a man. Where is that from?

I can't tell you what movie that's from, but I can confirm it's Buster Keaton. There's a show that airs once in a while about movie stunts and this was one of them. They said Buster did his own stunts, and on this one if he'd been one inch to the right or left he'd have been smashed pretty good. I'm guessing if you Google "buster keaton falling house" or something like that you'll find it. Or you can wait until that stunt show appears on tv again. They list a lot of them and include the actors' names and movie names.

I'd Tivo'd Boffo and have watched it all the way through and at first didn't remember seeing the clip you were asking about. Fortunately, I still have this on my Tivo and found the clip at the very end of the credits. I didn't know there was anything at the end and had stopped watching before this clip. It's priceless!

Trying is the first step towards failure

The film is Steamboat Bill Jr. Keaton performed almost all his own incredible stunts the only one he is not not known to have done for certain is in 'College' when he pole vaults through a window and that was only because he didn't have enough time to learn how to do it, he is a genius and his movies are more than worth checking out.

Life isn't a rehearsal, so make this one your best performance
