The last great comedy of the silent era, and one of the greatest comedies of
all time, Buster Keaton’s The General
is set during the American Civil War and follows railroad engineer Johnny
Gray (Keaton) who has his beloved locomotive, which happens to be carrying his
fiancé, stolen by Union spies. Featuring one of most iconic chase sequences
ever put to film, Johnny sets off in hot pursuit, waging a hilarious one-man
war against hijackers. Digital restoration in 4K made by la Modern Videofilm
under the supervision of Cohen Film Collection. (1926, 78 mins)
