How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A silent slapstick romp where Buster Keaton's everyman innocence collides with theatrical scheming and matrimonial mishaps. It's a wildly physical comedy about being used, mistaken, and somehow stumbling toward genuine affection anyway.
