About the film

The Cameraman is a 1928 American silent romantic comedy film directed by Edward Sedgwick and an uncredited Buster Keaton. The picture stars Keaton and Marceline Day. It was Keaton's first film under contract to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The following year, however, MGM refused to let Keaton continue with creative control over his pictures, causing lasting damage to his career from which Keaton never really recovered. Keaton later referred to his move to MGM as "the worst mistake of my career." The film is considered by fans and critics to be one of Keaton's best, and was added to the National Film Registry in 2005 as being deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." The Cameraman entered the public domain in the United States on January 1, 2024.
