Bruce Loeb on Piano A newsreel by Buster Keaton of a newsreel by Buster Keaton: with Sherlock, Jr. The Cameraman is his most self­reflexive film. Trying to "make it" in the Hearst Newsreel Company, Citizen Keaton finally photographs a Tong War in Chinatown and a boating accident, and astonishingly forecasts the issues of contemporary documentary theory. Along the way we are treated to sublime Buster Bits: a one­man baseball game, acrobatic competitions with mass transportation, and a change into a bathing suit in, to say the least, straitened circumstances.- William Nestrick
