Applying to be an extra in a 1930's period movie got me thinking about life back in those times, so I watched a silent movie with Buster Keaton in it called Steamboat Bill, Jr. The movie was made in 1928 about the son of a riverboat captain who comes to visit after many years away to join his father's crew. The film is a mostly a comedy, a physical comedy, with Keaton doing all the stunts. One famous scene from this movie is when the hurricane hits at the end of the movie, a side of a house falls an Keaton but he is uninjured because an open door happens to land exactly where he is standing. If you've got 71 minutes, check it out.
