Daniel Raim's Time Travelers Keaton Documentary
Criterion’s Blu-ray of The Cameraman (now 50% off at Barnes & Noble - hurry) features the Time Travelers bonus program by Oscar-nominated director Daniel Raim, where I lead historian Marc Wanamaker on a Hollywood tour. https://silentlocations.files.wordpress.com/2020/07/marc-buster-and-me-3_page...

Caught on Camera - Keaton filming in NYC
A tourist’s home movies show Buster Keaton filming in New York. But where, and was the crowd gathered to watch Buster, or someone else? https://silentlocations.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/city-hall-park_page_4.jpg The images come from Kevin Brownlow’s So Funny It Hurt bonus program, part of Criterio...

Hidden History Inside Chaplin's A Thief Catcher
A bit of a repeat of Paul's post. Given the production schedules I consider Charlie Chaplin’s A Thief Catcher as likely his 4th onscreen appearance. The background of the movie shows the transformation of the Keystone Studio itself. https://silentlocations.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/0000-a-thief-ca...

Harold Lloyd’s Earliest Days Filming in Edendale
Everything is connected. After a brief stint at Keystone, Harold Lloyd returned to Edendale to make early movies at the Norbig Studio – even filming at the same corner as Roscoe Arbuckle. https://silentlocations.files.wordpress.com/2020/05/00000o-the-turreted-building.jpg Read more to see great phot...
