Day Dreams (1922)


DAY DREAMS  (1922)  
¢ ¢ ¢ ¢
    D: Buster Keaton, Eddie Cline
    Buster Keaton, Renée Adorée, 
    Joe Keaton, Joe Roberts
Buster Keaton goes to the city to make his fortune and win the hand of the girl he loves. Somehow he ends up being chased by an army of cops, which was about all Keaton needed to make a movie. Lots of other crazy stuff happens, leading up to one of Keaton's most inspired sight gags, in which he gets caught in the paddle wheel of a steamboat, frantically trying to keep up as the boat and the wheel go faster, and faster, and faster. Classic Keaton.
