ABOUT THE SERIES: Beat the heat with matinee screenings of Buster Keaton’s greatest pratfalls, gags and stunts this August at the Aero Theatre! Join us at the American Cinematheque as we celebrate one of the leading masters of slapstick and a true behemoth of American comedy with blocks of the Great Stone Face’s wildest shorts and features. From Mel Brooks to Johnny Knoxville, Keaton’s influence on irreverent and physical comedy is an undeniable force to be reckoned with to this day.
