Seems like I've watched a whole lot of Buster Keaton films in the last few months. It is nice to watch one long enough to develop a storyline, even if it is just average overall.This was is about a family feud that Keaton grows up unaware of. Upon returning to the town he grew up in he finds out there is a family, two brothers and a dad, that have every intention of shooting him dead. Keaton has already struck it up with the daughter in the family and is invited over for dinner. The "Our Hospitality" is that they have enough honor to not shoot a guest in their house, which is used for some pretty good slapstick sequences as he tries to get away from the house without getting shot.
The most interesting thing about this film is the waterfall sequence because Keaton's guide wire for the stunt actually broke, nearly killing him. They even used this take for the final edit... probably because it looked so realistic!
Still a lot better Keaton films out there to watch instead of this one.
