Buster Keaton: The Villain Still Pursued Her

Buster Keaton, Anita Louise, Alan Mowbray, and Billy Gilbert star in this slapstick retelling of the classic stage melodrama "The Drunkard," filled with exaggerated hijinks, a mortgage in peril, a top-hatted bad guy, and a wild pie fight. The film is a contemptous send-up of all such Victorian mellers, its "serious" moments deliberately and broadly played for laughs.
