Pork pie hat

I always liked the work of Buster Keaton who was a great director, actor, writer and stunt man. There were stunts that he performed that still baffle people who understand movie making. I can't find the clip I am thinking of, but here is a link to a chase scene - who hasn't been there, amirite?


I have no idea what the setup is, but it must have been a dilly.

Speaking of pork pie hats.

That was a totally cool issue of "Physics Today."

Back when we designed and produced excellent stuff, hats included.

Oh, they're chasing him to marry him. He has to marry by the end of the day to inherit seven million dollars. Which is like a million million dollars today.

A cast of thousands. Back in those days, everyone could fix their own car. Nowadays, you need a million dollars to get someone at the dealership to fix your car.
