My art, my occupation 359 00:26:35,565 --> 00:26:38,318 The way they made movies is still the same way 360 00:26:38,693 --> 00:26:40,487 , Where we make movies. Basically 361 00:26:40,737 --> 00:26:42,030 They created this art form 362 00:26:42,948 --> 00:26:44,282 He was a great director 363 00:26:44,449 --> 00:26:46,868 He put himself in impossible situations 364 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,872 There's no doubt that there's a downside to the game 365 00:26:52,541 --> 00:26:55,168 Cinema was important to Keaton 366 00:26:55,335 --> 00:26:57,045 The camera was not nailed to the floor 367 00:26:57,170 --> 00:26:58,588 , Or nailed to a moving truck 368 00:26:58,713 --> 00:27:02,300 But jokes that were funny. Because of the film camera 369 00:27:02,884 --> 00:27:06,847 .Cinema itself becomes a joke 370 00:27:11,143 --> 00:27:14,146 , I think a lot of my daring 371 00:27:14,730 --> 00:27:17,774 , In terms of breaking the fourth wall, came from Keaton 372 00:27:17,858 --> 00:27:20,652 "When" Sherlock Jr. indicates that it is a movie 373 00:27:20,902 --> 00:27:25,741 And I always point out somewhere in my movies that we make a movie 374 00:27:26,658 --> 00:27:28,744 It's like when I did "the" craze in space 375 00:27:33,457 --> 00:27:34,499 He did this. 376 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,754 Buster has always been with me. And he will always be with me 377 00:27:39,087 --> 00:27:42,048 Our stunts are always real. No smears 378 00:27:42,132 --> 00:27:44,468 The man who does the stunts, really does them 379 00:27:44,593 --> 00:27:49,139 And he had strong feelings about it. And I also have strong feelings about it 380 00:27:49,264 --> 00:27:51,183 I stole from him as many moves as possible 381 00:27:51,683 --> 00:27:55,604 Buster said to collide with the floor, with your hands while you fall 382 00:27:55,729 --> 00:27:59,274 , Because they absorb some of the blow! 383 00:27:59,524 --> 00:28:03,278 The effect he had on me was that he knew how to do 384 00:28:03,361 --> 00:28:06,364 All kinds of crazy stunts 385 00:28:06,490 --> 00:28:09,659 And do crazy things, with his body 386 00:28:09,910 --> 00:28:13,497 But at the same time he also never .not too exaggerated in his performance 387 00:28:13,789 --> 00:28:16,541 , Such control over his body. Such agility 388 00:28:17,125 --> 00:28:18,585 He was like a ballet dancer 389 00:28:18,877 --> 00:28:20,796 Amazing control of the body 390 00:28:24,633 --> 00:28:26,051 , Amazing stunts, really 391 00:28:26,259 --> 00:28:28,637 Stunts that no one dared to do. I think 392 00:28:30,722 --> 00:28:33,391 Or he was not afraid. Or he was crazy 393 00:28:33,892 --> 00:28:37,437 He's really doing what you see, and that's true in almost every movie of his 394 00:28:38,146 --> 00:28:39,856 , Leonard Meltin Film critic, historian 395 00:28:40,774 --> 00:28:44,152 And in my eyes, the best special effect. In these movies is Buster himself 396 00:28:49,991 --> 00:28:51,910 , In the same year, 1923 397 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,205 Buster's long-standing wish is finally coming true 398 00:28:55,372 --> 00:28:57,541 And he starts making his own movies 399 00:29:00,877 --> 00:29:04,548 He finishes two. In those busy 12 months 400 00:29:05,590 --> 00:29:09,261 , In the five years that followed, Steam conceived, directed and starred 401 00:29:09,344 --> 00:29:11,680 While eight comedies, full-length 402 00:29:11,888 --> 00:29:14,808 When these ten are the greatest works of his career 403 00:29:14,933 --> 00:29:17,894 There is no doubt that the films he made in the 1920s 404 00:29:18,061 --> 00:29:22,691 They are his masterpieces. We will talk about them in detail later- 405 00:29:25,235 --> 00:29:26,194 Resolutions for the New Year 1929 - 406 00:29:26,278 --> 00:29:28,155 , Following these incredible records 407 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,658 Buster does what he calls the "big mistake of my life." 408 00:29:32,367 --> 00:29:34,619 Joe Skank convinces Keaton to sign a contract 409 00:29:34,703 --> 00:29:37,038 , At Joe's brother, Nick Skank, in MGM 410 00:29:37,164 --> 00:29:40,459 The largest studio in Hollywood .and perhaps also the most regulated 411 00:29:41,752 --> 00:29:45,297 Both Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd strongly advised him 412 00:29:45,422 --> 00:29:47,090 , Do not give up his independence 413 00:29:47,174 --> 00:29:49,843 But unfortunately, Buster relied on Joe Skank 414 00:29:49,968 --> 00:29:52,721 .They were very good friends .They were married to sisters 415 00:29:53,096 --> 00:29:56,183 But Skank actually made a deal with MGM 416 00:29:56,349 --> 00:29:58,477 Everything worked out for him afterwards 417 00:29:59,436 --> 00:30:02,689 Buster drank too much, his marriage fell apart 418 00:30:02,814 --> 00:30:05,901 Then the voice enters the realm of cinema and takes over 419 00:30:06,234 --> 00:30:09,529 The era of silent film is over, as Chaplin said 420 00:30:09,946 --> 00:30:12,574 Just when we learned to do it. "Properly, it's over" 421 00:30:13,033 --> 00:30:19,539 Just before he did that stunt, "With the Front of the House in a Movie" Dead Bill 422 00:30:19,664 --> 00:30:21,291 , Approached him and said 423 00:30:21,416 --> 00:30:23,752 Look, MGM just bought it. "Your rights" 424 00:30:23,835 --> 00:30:25,587 And he just went through all sorts of things with his wife 425 00:30:25,712 --> 00:30:29,549 Got bad news in two areas just before he did a stunt 426 00:30:29,633 --> 00:30:31,676 , Which could have killed him 427 00:30:32,969 --> 00:30:34,179 And yet he did it 428 00:30:40,268 --> 00:30:43,688 If there was a deviation, of one or two cm in each direction 429 00:30:43,772 --> 00:30:44,773 He could have been killed 430 00:30:44,856 --> 00:30:49,444 He felt so depressed and depressed that he did not care 431 00:30:50,487 --> 00:30:55,325 And this is the section that has been used more. Of every other section in history perhaps 432 00:31:07,546 --> 00:31:10,715 "We did it in Jackass 2. We did a tribute 433 00:31:11,550 --> 00:31:14,302 The man who prepared the stunt said, "Look, when you stand in that place." 434 00:31:14,553 --> 00:31:17,764 Do not move. "It is a 7 meter high steel wall" 435 00:31:18,014 --> 00:31:19,224 Then they said, 'Action.' 436 00:31:20,350 --> 00:31:23,812 I took a few steps, and then someone said, "Cut, cut, cut." 437 00:31:24,104 --> 00:31:26,064 I moved from my sign 438 00:31:28,817 --> 00:31:32,571 , There was silence on stage... except for my nine-year-old daughter, and she's like that 439 00:31:33,405 --> 00:31:36,158 Dad, idiot like you, what are you doing? 440 00:31:36,283 --> 00:31:38,577 And that loosened up the atmosphere a bit 441 00:31:38,702 --> 00:31:40,662 It was funny after all. Probably funnier 442 00:31:41,455 --> 00:31:44,374 , In all his short and long films, "except" The General 443 00:31:44,499 --> 00:31:45,959 Buster never had a script 444 00:31:46,042 --> 00:31:48,003 He and his men thought, of a good start 445 00:31:48,211 --> 00:31:50,088 And then found .satisfactory end 446 00:31:50,213 --> 00:31:53,049 , As he used to say, "the middle will work itself out." 447 00:31:53,216 --> 00:31:54,760 .Yes 448 00:31:55,510 --> 00:31:56,678 I heard he said that 449 00:31:56,845 --> 00:31:59,931 , If anything happened at that moment 450 00:32:00,432 --> 00:32:02,517 He said, "We would have an idea." And we would just do it 451 00:32:02,642 --> 00:32:06,646 This leaves room for a great deal of spontaneity 452 00:32:06,730 --> 00:32:08,982 , If you have a flash, it can affect the story 453 00:32:09,107 --> 00:32:10,859 , And instead of going in that direction, you can go in that direction 454 00:32:10,984 --> 00:32:13,820 , "In" three eras, as he leaps from one building to another 455 00:32:14,071 --> 00:32:15,280 , 'Ben Mankiewicz TV personality, producer 456 00:32:15,363 --> 00:32:16,198 But he does not succeed 457 00:32:17,324 --> 00:32:21,495 So he leaves it in the film, yes, it's a whole wonderful piece 458 00:32:56,405 --> 00:32:59,116 If it was completely unacceptable 459 00:33:01,493 --> 00:33:03,703 Well, you're in!
