THE GENERAL - Keaton

The General has often been called one of the 10 best film of all time. Combining Buster Keaton's masterful comedy with the serious epic story of the American Civil War, this film is as powerful today as it was when it was released in 1927.This clip is exerpted from the DVD, THE GENERAL / STEAMBOAT BILL, JR. The DVD presents both films in their entirety on one DVD. They have been mastered (masterfully we might say) from the best available 35mm sources, and are accompanied by Alloy Orchestra's new scores.The DVD can be obtained from Alloy's website:alloyorchestra.comThis clip is courtesy of David Shepard / Film Preservation Associates
