No matter how long I watch this, I still find it so hard to reconcile the agile Buster Keaton of the 1920′s with the older, pack-a-day voice he possesses in his later years. Did he always talk like that?  I would love so much to see some footage of him with sound from 1927. But I’m guessing that didn’t exist then…   Still – a great glimpse into Mr. Keaton’s world.
