The Cameraman (1928)
Summary: In order to gain his crush's attention, a tintype photographer trades in his camera for an old movie camera so as to get a job in the newsreel department for which she works.
This was Buster Keaton's first film under contract to MGM.
( Impressions )
While it started off somewhat slow and awkward, I eventually enjoyed it. It didn't have the same kind of inventive, kinetic feel that his previous films had. That said, there were a few fabulous moments that made up for the down times.
I will post about Manhatta and N.Y., N.Y. tomorrow.
