Synopsis

This silent comedy stars Buster Keaton as the son of a steamboat Captain who comes home after years away. The father tries to teach Junior his trade without much luck - and Junior also discovers that the girl he's got his eye on is the daughter of his dad's bitter rival. Matters come to a head during a huge storm, where Keaton pulls off one of cinema's most memorable stunts - the entire front wall of a house falls down around him, but he survives because he's standing exactly where the open window is.

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
