Buster Keaton in ‘The Navigator’

One of Buster’s most popular and critcally acclaimed films, The Navigator is the tale of upper class twit Rollo Treadway who, on a whim, decides to propose to his socialite neighbor, Betsy O’Brien. Although Betsy turns Rollo down, he still opts to go on the cruise that he intended as their honeymoon. When circumstances find both Rollo and Betsy on the same ship, the spoiled pair, after a lifetime of being waited on hand and foot have great difficulty looking after themselves; but brute survival makes them a quick study. In the meantime, they have adventures on the high seas which end with a hillarious conclusion.

“Brilliant slapstick comedy, with a rousing third act and a slam-bang climax” DecentFilms. Silent Film with live accompaniment by Marta Waterman.
