It's fun, it's funny, it's high-paced and impressively made in multiple regards. The effects are exceptional for the time, the stunts are unsurprisingly amazing, and the editing is smart and effective. I didn't find The Cameraman to be particularly memorable or charming, but maybe that's the studio putting its fingerprints on the whole thing. Oh, and the baboon is acting his ass off!

Nunca pensei que um dia assitiria um filme com o Buster Keaton como ator e ele não seria o melhor em cena, estou falando daquele macaco, aquele macaco é genial. Só porque chegou hoje o meu box com a obra completa muda do Buster Keaton do Obras Primas do Cinema em DVD.

A hapless tintype photographer (Buster Keaton) tries to woo an MGM secretary (Marceline Day) by becoming a newsreel cameraman, with predictably comedic results. While not quite on a par with his finest work - it bogs down a bit during some irrelevant sequences - it rallies for a mostly superb final act, complete with a monkey ex machina.

Buster Keaton delivering the goods once more, in this bittersweet tale of a poor little fella trying to make it as a cameraman and to win the girl of his dreams. Its storyline is simple yet engaging, filled with perfectly executed gags and sweet moments, at times funny, at times sad. The ending, where Buster leaves the camera from his hands for the first time, elegantly reveals the moving truth of the film.
