EDITORS COMMENTS
BUSTER KEATON: THE GENERAL - A Captivating Moment in Silent Film History In this print from Buster Keaton's iconic 1927 film, The General, we are transported back to the Civil War era. The scene captures a heart-stopping moment as a majestic locomotive hurtles towards its doom, crashing into the mighty Rock River. Keaton, known for his physical comedy and daring stunts, masterfully orchestrates this thrilling chase sequence that has become one of the most memorable moments in early American cinema. With meticulous attention to detail, he recreates an authentic wooden bridge and transports us to a time when transportation relied on these iron horses. The image showcases the sheer power and destruction of the locomotive crash against the serene backdrop of nature. It serves as a reminder of both human ingenuity and our vulnerability in face of such forces. As we gaze upon this still frame from The General, we can't help but marvel at Keaton's genius in capturing South America's rich history during the Civil War era. This silent film not only entertains but also educates us about our past through its stunning visuals. This remarkable piece is part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection and is sure to captivate any lover of classic cinema or history enthusiast alike.
