  • Buster Keaton Film Locations: a Silent Echoes Tour of Los Angeles
    BUSTER KEATON FILM LOCATIONS: A SILENT ECHOES TOUR OF LOS ANGELES Copyright 2005 John Bengtson. All rights reserved. The following self-guided tour directions have been provided as a special bonus to John Bengtson’s “Touring Los Angeles Through the Films of Buster Keaton” presentation at the UCLA Film and Television Archive. (You can also download this document from the Archive’s website at www.cinema.ucla.edu.) New locations have been added here to the ones discussed in Bengtson’s acclaimed book, Silent Echoes: Discovering Early Hollywood Through the Films of Buster Keaton (www.SilentEchoes.net, Santa Monica Press: 800-784-9553). Happy navigating your way around town! Hollywood Tour The Hollywood tour begins, symbolically, at the corner of Hollywood and Vine (1). Here Keaton jumped onto a fire truck in The Cameraman. Proceed west down Hollywood Boulevard past Highland, to Mann’s (formerly Grauman’s) Chinese Theater. There, across the street between Highland and Orange, at 6904 Hollywood Blvd., is the former Mary Moll Building (2), which appeared briefly during the film-editing sequence from Sherlock Jr. Turn back east down Hollywood Blvd., and turn right (south) onto Cahuenga, stopping near the corner. The alley on the east side of Cahuenga (3) is the alley from Cops where Keaton grabs a passing car one- handed. Proceed south down Cahuenga a few yards until you reach the parking lot at 1622 Cahuenga (4), the lot where Brown Eyes was kept safe in Go West. This parking lot also appears in The Cameraman. Across the street from the parking lot (5) is the site of the former fire station that appears in Three Ages and The Cameraman.

  • Spite Marriage
    Spite Marriage (1929) By John Bengtson, © 2004 Buster meets Dorothy in front of the east end of the Museum of Natural History at Exposition Park facing the Rose Garden. A vintage photo of the museum and Exposition Park. The cast and crew take a break filming the art museum scene in front of the Rose Garden in Exposition Park. Leila Hyams (seated , far left) appears in a fox hunting outfit, although she does not appear in the scene filmed here. She may have been dressed for a country club scene that was cut from the final film. To her right is Edward Earle, who plays Lionel Benmore. Director Ed Sedgwick is in the center. Between him and Buster is Ernie Orsetti, an outfielder for the St. Louis Cardinals who had returned from the World Series to work for Buster. Notice Norman MacNeil, the musician on the silent film set, with an accordion, behind Buster. 1 The hand placing the wedding ring in this shot is a hand double standing in for Buster. Buster lost the tip of his right index finger in a childhood accident, and his shortened finger is plainly visible in other shots. Buster used a hand double for a similar wedding ring shot in his earlier feature film Battling Butler. Hand doubles were often used to film insert shots in order to allow the stars to go home a bit early, but in this case it may have been an artistic decision. Lionel confronts Buster outside of the Hotel Carmel, located at 1451 Second Street in Santa Monica, on the corner of Broadway.

The program, scheduled through August 26, will also include such film classics as Carl Dreyer's "The Passion of Joan of Arc;" Pudovkin's "Mother;" Erich von Stroheim's "Greed;" F.W. Murnau's "The Last Laugh;" Eisenstein's "Potemkin;" and "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari," one of the most controversial films of its time. Thirty-seven pictures were selected by Beaumont Newhall, Director of the George Eastman House, who is responsible for organizing the current photographic exhibition, "Photo Eye of the 20s," to which "Kino Eye of the 20s" is a companion program. Mr. Newhall will appear at the Thursday evening performance, July 30 at 8 p.m., fjhen he will introduce the Murnau film "Sunrise" and discuss the series. A strong kinship between photography and film existed in this decade, when the film found its syntax and structure, according to Mr. NeT;hall. "In a quarter of a century the movies had grown from a vaudeville novelty to a distinct and po';erful art form." The decade saw the production of some of the greatest films ever made.

    Curatorial Note: The art of film-making has always borrowed from the art of photography and vice-versa to tell stories about people, cultures, times. This creative confluence of film and photography has contributed some of the best works of art in our times. The five films selected for the month of February are unique pieces of art in their own sense, hailing from various countries, cultures and historic times. The selection ranges from the era of silent films from as early as 1928 (The Cameraman), to a collaborative film as a response to Lumiere brothers’ films- one of the earliest filmmakers in the history-to films with some brilliant visual and audio effects like City of Gods. Films like 5 Broken Cameras and My Camera and Tsunami tell very fascinating encounters of the film makers who in the journey of capturing moving images and sounds, encounter displacement/damage of their cameras. But the film still goes on, to tell the story of the broken/displaced cameras. Overall, these five films reflect the fascinating exchange of film-making, photography, storytelling and the journey of the film-maker through changing times. On 14th Feb 2017: The Cameraman/ Edward Sedgwick Buster Keaton / 1928 / 67 min The Cameraman is a 1928 American silent comedy directed by Edward Sedgwick and an uncredited Buster Keaton. The picture stars Buster Keaton, Marceline Day, Harold Goodwin, and others. The Cameraman was Keaton's first film with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. It is considered by fans and critics to be Keaton still in top form, and it was added to the National Film Registry in 2005 as being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." On 15th Feb 2017: Lumière and Company / Several Directors/ 1995 / 135 min Directors: forty-one international film directors including David Lynch, Abbas Kiarostami, Theo Angelopoulos, Wim Wenders To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Auguste and Louis Lumiere's first moving film, Romane Bohringer sought out fellow filmmakers, requesting that they shoot short movies on cameras similar to the one used by the French brothers.
