OUR HOSPITALITY (1923)
The Hatfields & McCoys
feud is the basis for one of Keaton’s most successful efforts at bringing
dramatic weight and visual complexity to his comedy without sacrificing the
laughs. After heading out west to claim his inheritance, the family's homestead, New Yorker Willie McKay (Keaton) falls for Virginia
Canfield. When she invites him home for dinner, he finds himself in the parlor
of the Canfields, the McKays’ sworn enemy in a longstanding feud. Virginia’s
brothers have itchy trigger fingers, but lucky for Willie, the Canfield code of
hospitality dictates no killing of guests, at least inside the house… (USA, 65 min., b/w, silent | dir. John
G. Blystone & Buster Keaton)
