One Of Buster's Better 'Talkies'

Boy, it was odd to actually hear Buster Keaton's voice. After watching almost all of his silent films, it was kind of shock for me to hear him utter his first words ("What happened?") His voice is a little shaky but that fits him. Keaton is famous for his silent films but he did make a few good short "talkies" and this is one of them.

You can still see him doing what he does best: pratfalls and other slapstick routines. As everyone knows, he was a master at that and his physical prowess was unmatched. Speaking of physicality, he plays a "fall guy" for his reporter-friend, who wants to capture a criminal. Nobody in their right mind would go to jail, with a good possibility of being hanged, just to help his pal out and get $98 so he can buy a diamond ring for his girl......except Buster!

Overall, there are enough jokes in this dated little short to make most Keaton fans happy and amuse others, too.

The chief of police is played by Bud Jamison, a frequent foil of The Three Stooges around this period." Actually, that's apt because this short had a definite Three Stooges atmosphere to it.
