The Paleface

In this laugh-out-loud silent comedy Western, a hapless butterfly collector stumbles into an Indian encampment while chasing his elusive quarry, unwittingly becoming the target of a tribe's deadly vendetta against all white men. When he outsmarts them and escapes, he earns their admiration - and leads them in a showdown with the oil tycoons who've been stealing their land. With Buster Keaton's trademark deadpan charm and physical comedy, "The Paleface" is a sidesplitting tale of cultural misunderstanding and heroic hijinks that still charms audiences today.
