We explore the subtle genius of a man often remembered for pratfalls and sight gags. Buster Keaton was a silent film star in the 1920s, but he was far more than an actor and stuntman. He conceived and directed his films, cited by some of America's leading filmmakers as inspirations. We speak with Slate film critic Dana Stevens, whose book examines Keaton's work and influence, and chronicles his colorful life. Her book, Camera Man, is now out in paperback.

I love Buster Keaton. Filmmakers can learn a lot from his films. Buster Keaton made silent films that are incredible and funny. A great artist and was a really talented and good looking man. If anyone reading this hasn’t seen a buster keaton film, do yourself a favor and watch one. You will literally laugh out loud. #busterkeaton
