Arbuckle & Keaton, Vol. 1 (1917-19) Movie Review 2000

These two discs present some of his best films, two reel comedies that feature a young Buster Keaton as his co-star. Their physical humor contains beautifully timed gags and some of their slapstick is superb. The overt racism of "Out West" is offputting, but it's not unknown in films of that time.
