About this product

Product Information

The Years of Buster Keaton's Life Span-from 1895 to 1966-were a time of unfathomably swift and profound change. In those seven decades, America went from being an agricultural nation connected by railroads to being a space-age superpower with the world monopoly on an industry that was born the same year Keaton was: the movies. From his days as the child star of a family slapstick act to his decade-long stretch as the director, star, stuntman, editor, and all-around mastermind of some of the greatest silent comedies ever made-and even through his dark middle years as a severely depressed alcoholic finding work on the margins of show business-Keaton's life had a way of reflecting the changes going on in the world around him. In this genre-defying work of cultural history, Dana Stevens, the longtime film critic at Slate, places Keaton's unique creative genius in the context of his time. In a wide-ranging meditation on modernity, she chronicles how Keaton's trajectory overlapped with influential figures of his era and weaves his life story together with the historical forces that shaped his work. Camera Man paints a complex portrait of a one-of-a-kind filmmaker, performer, and comedian at the dawn of a new era-the age of technologically reproduced images in which we all live. Stevens's multifaceted insight and pellucid prose turn one of the quintessential lives of the twentieth century into a prism for understanding his time and our own.
