Buster Keaton is at the peak of his slapstick powers in The Cameraman—the first film that the silent-screen legend made after signing with MGM, and his last great masterpiece.

The final work over which he maintained creative control, this clever farce is the culmination of an extraordinary, decade-long run that produced some of the most innovative and enduring comedies of all time. Keaton plays a hapless newsreel cameraman desperate to impress both his new employer and his winsome office crush as he zigzags up and down Manhattan hustling for a scoop. Along the way, he goes for a swim (and winds up soaked), becomes embroiled in a Chinatown Tong War, and teams up with a memorable monkey sidekick (the famous Josephine). The marvelously inventive film-within-a-film setup allows Keaton’s imagination to run wild, yielding both sly insights into the travails of moviemaking and an emotional payoff of disarming poignancy.

Region B Blu-ray: Australian compatible.

Kindle Version is HORRIBLE
Format: Kindle
I recently bought the Kindle Version, and although I love this book as a reference guide the publisher did not include indexing which does not allow a reader to search making it almost impossible and very time consuming to hunt down a term or entry. If you are considering buying the kindle version I would highly recommend purchasing the paperback version as it will be much easier to peruse the entries.

Wow, Wow Wow, wonderful book! You won't be able to put down.
Format: Paperback
Enemies to lovers Collin and Olivia are the perfect pair in an opposite attracts that really hits on all cylinders! After a fire Olivia tries to get her feet back on the ground and moves in with her brother and Collin. Collin just seems to have everything together and Olivia, well not so much. But the more they banter the more the heat is turned up and they stumble into something they are both not sure of. Plenty of mis understandings on both sides and the plot device of mis texting is taken to a high degree, but oh when all is straightened out the HEA is the best. As author Painter knew we needed more, the bonus scenes are oh so satisfying. Great, great book!
