Buster Keaton is the touchstone silent film comic. Innovative, imaginative, and prolific, Keaton always delivered throughout a long career in Hollywood that spanned the silent era and early talkies. Here in Neighbors, Keaton plays a modern day Romeo whose Juliet lives next door. The parents donât approve and begin to feud; but this is all just a pretext for a showcase of hilarious pranks, stunts, and sight gags. Not utilizing Keatonâs usual gadgetry, Neighbors is more of a physical stunt free-for-all that will leave any viewer gasping for air between belly laughs. One of Keatonâs best.
