What a magnificent show!

I'm too young to have ever watched "Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. Present" but I recently bought a DVD called Keaton Plus where Buster Keaton appeared on the show in 1954. I'm watching it right now, it's called "The Awakening" were for the first time in Keaton's career, he plays a completely dramatic role, I give this film 9 out of 10. Direction: 10 out of 10. Keaton's acting: 10 out of 10!
