What a blessing that they met. It’s obvious they adored each other.

Great point you made here about Yost asking Eleanor about her own film work! It was a very thoughtful thing he did, considering that she'd been in the huge but magnificent shadow of Buster Keaton from the time they were married. So glad this was posted; very short but very sweet & priceless! :-)

So glad Elwy asks her about her about her movies as well. Don’t think I’ve seen any interviews about her past work.

He was just born there. He wasn't really from anywhere, but spent summers as a kid near Grand Rapids. Definitely sounds Michigan-ish to me.

He grew up in Kansas. I could always hear that bit of a Mid-Western draw.

Why is it so hard to find an interview with buster keaton?
@gruvdrums7 жыл бұрын
Cristopher Haas it IS very hard to find interviews but there is a super audio interview with Buster being interviewed by Studs Terkel on the internet. There are also some interview snippets on the documentary "Buster Keaton: A Hard Act to Follow"

She says he didn't have an accent. Am I the only person who thinks he had a thick Great Lakes-type accent? Maybe it's just because I've got one too. lol
@drmoonrat14 жыл бұрын
That is true. I suppose he just had a genuien all american accent. Probably a little bit from each place. I'd assume anyway that he'd pick up his accent from his parents if they had any.

I thought when Eleanor said “pet person,” she was the going to say people treated him like a pet, & not human, but thankfully I was wrong.

This was a loving wife (and I suspect toward the end years, a younger caretaker) to Mr. Keaton. It's the kind of everybody loved him/he worked ceaselessly tale that a loving wife tells. It's not anywhere near objective. There were challenges and struggles and from everything I've read his time with MGM in the sound era was mostly an artistic disaster. They did not treat him well. Go elsewhere to get the actual facts.

His time with MGM was not good, but happily that wasn't that long of a time period, and she is actually quite truthful here. You need to do better research - Keaton was much beloved and respected in his later years and was able to do a lot of work in TV that he enjoyed. "Buster Keaton - A Filmmaker's Life" by James Curtis is a great book about him, is extensively researched and an important read for all Keaton fans.
