Buster Keaton in "Spite marriage".
The great Buster Keaton. The greatest physical comdedian in cinema history.
Spite Marriage is an American 1929 silent comedy film starring Buster Keaton and Dorothy Sebastian. Keaton and Edward Sedgwick co-directed. Elmer, a humble worker in a dry cleaning establishment, idolizes stage actress Trilby Drew (Sebastian). She, in turn, is carrying a torch for fellow actor Lionel Benmore (Edward Earle). When he spurns her for the younger Ethyl Norcrosse (Leila Hyams), she impulsively asks Elmer to marry her, only to regret it almost immediately. Her handlers extricate her from the marriage, and when Elmer finds himself first in the hands of criminals and then at sea, he is more than happy for the opportunity to forget her. But a series of coincidences throw Elmer and Trilby back together again and she will have cause to re-evaluate her opinion of him.

I THINK this is fake... But I dunno...

[diggia81]

@Harpomarx1459 why?

[ubermom]

How I'd love to trade places with her! Buster could manhandle me all he wanted!

[ubermom]

Her name is Dorothy Sebastian, and she ended up being his mistress for two years. I guess they got along REALLY well.

@tgreywolfe1 Leave it to MGM or whoever, they just don't know what's good when they see it.

[Bromirez]

Man, people sure knew how to dress back then.

[tgreywolfe1]

It's agreat clip.  Buster had to fight to keep it in the film. The producers wanted to cut it.

@keaton1895 I said I THINK... and you're RIGHT! HE COULD DO ALMOST EVERYTHING!!!

[keaton1895]

@NotADood It's not rape, it's just forgettable sex.

@arceface Rapists should all have their dicks chucked into a big meat grinder and fed to rats.
