“Buster Keaton is at the peak of his slapstick powers in The Cameraman - his last great masterpiece. The final work is the culmination of an extraordinary, decade-long run that produced some of the most innovative and enduring comedies of all time.
Keaton plays a hapless newsreel cameraman desperate to impress both his new employer and his winsome office crush as he zigzags up and down Manhattan hustling for a scoop. Along the way, he goes for a swim (and winds up soaked), becomes embroiled in a gang war, and teams up with a memorable monkey sidekick (the famous Josephine).
The marvellously inventive film-within-a-film setup allows Keaton’s imagination to run wild, yielding both sly insights into the travails of moviemaking and an emotional payoff of disarming poignancy.”
The Event Organisers have an obligation to implement all reasonably practical measures to ensure the health and safety of the patrons, musicians and organisers.
