Our Hospitality is a 1923 American silent period comedy film directed by Buster Keaton and John G. Blystone. Keaton stars as a young man who returns to his family home only to find himself embroiled in a generations-long family feud based on the real–life Hatfield–McCoy feud. Joe Roberts and Natalie Talmadge also feature. Produced by Joseph M. Schenck and released by Metro Pictures in theaters on November 19, 1923, Our Hospitality has grossed over $500,000 at the box office. It was a groundbreaking work of comic cinema, as Keaton included "careful integration of gags into a dramatically coherent storyline," "meticulous attention to period detail" and beautiful cinematography and extensive location shooting"—a contrast to the era's other slapstick comedies. Turner Classic Movies describes Our Hospitality as a "silent film for which no apologies need be made to modern viewers."
