If you loved El maquinista de La General, try El cameraman
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. El cameraman tiene aproximadamente 3.2× votos menos que El maquinista de La General — es una opción más underground, no una recomendación de masas. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Buster Keaton, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to El maquinista de La General, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What El cameraman is
Buster Keaton does his thing again. A hapless tintype portraitist falls for an MGM secretary and becomes a newsreel cameraman to win her over. It turns out to be a sweet silent comedy, if that's your thing.
