@busterkeaton.bsky.socialThis Day in Buster… October 10, 1920
Roscoe Arbuckle's "The Round Up" is released. Buster Keaton is uncredited in his performance but unmistakable.
@pfitzinger.bsky.socialI think this is the first Haunted House movie ever made, about 1907. It's 6 minutes long and was covered with Danse Macabre by Saint-Saëns.
I find this video entertaining and informative, and I'm impressed by the stop-motion work involved.
