The General
Beverly Hills, CA: United Artists, Circa 1926. Vintage reference photograph from the 1926 film, showing actor Buster Keaton as Johnny Gray, the train engineer.
During the Civil War, an engineer must work to save the two loves of his life: a woman named Annabelle Lee, and a train named The General. A box office disappointment upon release, but long since reconsidered, and now ranked among the the finest of Keaton's films.
Shot on location in California and Oregon.
10 x 8 inches. Very Good plus, with a few short closed tears to the top margin.
National Film Registry. Ebert I. Eureka Masters of Cinema 173. Godard, Histoire(s) du cinema. Rosenbaum 1000. Schrader 60.
