  Title: Buster Keaton
  Passage: Joseph Frank "Buster" Keaton (October 4, 1895 – February 1, 1966) was an American actor, comedian, film director, producer, screenwriter, and stunt performer.  He was best known for his silent films, in which his trademark was physical comedy with a consistently stoic, deadpan expression, earning him the nickname "The Great Stone Face."  Critic Roger Ebert wrote of Keaton's "extraordinary period from 1920 to 1929, [when] he worked without interruption on a series of films that make him, arguably, the greatest actor–director in the history of the movies".  His career declined afterward with a dispiriting loss of his artistic independence when he was hired by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and he descended into alcoholism, ruining his family life.  He recovered in the 1940s, remarried, and revived his career to a degree as an honored comic performer for the rest of his life, earning an Academy Honorary Award in 1959.

  Title: Three Ages
  Passage: Three Ages is a 1923 black-and-white American feature-length silent comedy film starring comedian Buster Keaton and Wallace Beery.  The first feature Keaton wrote, directed, produced, and starred in (unlike "The Saphead" (1920), in which he only acted), Keaton structured the film like three inter-cut short films.  The structure also worked as a satire of D. W. Griffith's 1916 film "Intolerance".  The film was shot in this manner as a kind of insurance for the studio.  While Keaton was a proven success in the short film medium, he had yet to prove himself as a feature-length star.  Had the project flopped, the film would have been broken into three short films, each covering one of the 'Ages.'
