Buster Keaton, in THE BLACKSMITH (1922)

One sequence that displays Keaton’s well-known affinity for animals is a delightful pantomime of a shoe-store clerk’s ritual of offering the latest fashions to a customer who, in this case, happens to be a white mare (the same horse named Onyx, incidentally, that Keaton used in Cops, Three Ages, and Our Hospitality).

#there is this quote by one of keaton' friends saying that each time there were animals around keaton they came to him naturally #like cats or dogs or even birds - he really had an affinity with animals #ACTUAL DISNEY PRINCESS BUSTER KEATON #buster keaton #oldhollywoodedit #classicfilmlblr #classicfilmblr #classicfilmedit #classicfilmsource #dailyfilmsource #filmcentral #doyouevenfilm #this scene was just really cute so i had to gif it ♥

"That thing in "Cops", where Buster grabs that car and flies up, I mean, that's unreal. Even he couldn't explain it. I said was it the film speeded up? He said no. How he did that was superhuman. That would have jerked anyone else's arm off."   —Dick Van Dyke

"I just did a new "Spider-Man" and there was a very clear influence of Buster Keaton. You know, Spider-Man other than having his eyes move just a little bit, he's stone face. Here I have this character who has almost no expression in his face, but there's so much personality you want to create, and so much humor that you want to bring out in the physicalities. So, I just went back and watched a bunch of Buster Keaton films. I use that as a baseline for so many "Spider-Man" moments."   —Jon Watts
