- Keaton’s The Cameraman, available in a handsome new edition from Criterion Collection, is considered by most critics to be his last great film. It isn’t a coincidence that the comedy is also the final project in which Keaton enjoyed full creative control.

Dec 12, 2004 · In its own low-down deportment, The Cameraman is really a raucous, more accessible iteration of Dziga Vertov’s meta-cinematic masterpiece from 1929, at least to the extent that both thrive on postmodern self-referentiality. Throughout Sedgwick’s film, Buster’s camera repeatedly causes chaos, photographically as well as physically, acting ...
Jun 16, 2020 · The Cameraman is a good movie, and maybe even a great one, but it also represents a pivotal — some might even say tragic — moment in Keaton’s career. After a string of innovative, courageous silent comedies — including such masterpieces as Our Hospitality , Sherlock, Jr.

Jul 2, 2020 · That first film was The Cameraman. It’s regarded among the best of Keaton’s work and Criterion are releasing it on Blu-ray with his follow-up Spite Marriage as an added bonus film. I gave both a watch and my brief thoughts on them follow.

Buster Keaton is at the peak of his slapstick powers in The Cameraman—the first film that the silent-screen legend made after signing with MGM, and his last great masterpiece. The final work over which he maintained creative control, this clever farce is the culmination of an extraordinary, decade-long run that produced some of the most innovative ...
Buster Keaton makes his debut in The Criterion Collection with his first MGM film, The Cameraman, presented here in the aspect ratio of 1.37:1 on a dual-layer disc with a 1080p/24hz high-definition encode. Criterion, Warner Bros. and Cineteca di Bologna collaborated on the new 4K restoration that serves as the basis for this presentation. The end r...
Being Keaton’s second-to-last silent film, the film is accompanied by a score and Criterion includes a new one, created for the film and conducted by Timothy Brock in 2020. It is presented here in lossless PCM 2.0 stereo. Since it’s a new recording it should come as no surprise that it’s very clean, features excellent fidelity, and excellent range....
Previously released by Warner Bros. on DVD (as part of a set with two other MGM Keaton films), Criterion does port most of the material over. The big inclusion would probably be Keaton’s second MGM film (and his last full-feature “silent” film), Spite Marriage (which was the second film on that Warner disc). Keaton would say that moving to MGM was ...
Criterion has put together a rather loving edition for the film, packing on some great new material to accompany the impressive new restoration. A very easy recommendation. BUY AT:

The transfer itself is very good, equal to the best I’ve seen, with a jaunty period-appropriate score and accompanying commentary by Glenn Mitchell that passes through the film’s production history, bits of trivia about the shooting locations, the framing of particular shots, and descriptions of what’s happening in various scenes ...
