Thanks! Keaton developed his famous "stone face" in vaudeville as a child for the same reason he generally kept it up in films: bigger laughs. It's unfortunate that people, both insiders and fans, often conflate the actor with the person, being too gullible to understand that quality entertainers can detach themselves from their work. (Even Method actors do, eventually.)

Buster Keaton loved to laugh and smile, just not (generally) while acting. And he had a particularly beautiful smile, too.

You are absolutely right. As both a gag writer and comedian it must have been fun to sit there in his studio in the 20s to watch him go!

He has never been topped!

Ah, Buster Keaton! He was so awesome. His stone face intrigued us all. He looked sad, shy, boyish, and oh so lonely. No wonder women loved him. I would of loved to of seen his private side when he smiled from the heart. And for such a small man he had a hard, muscled body ;)

@SamIamb actually i have been studying slapstick and buster keaton got his stone face from when he was performing with his parents and whenever he went to smile his dad would hiss at him 'face, face' to remind him not to and since then he found it hard to smile when performing, but i aggree he did have an awesome smile :)
