Synopsis: The last of the independent features made in the prime of Buster Keaton's career, Steamboat Bill Jr.,. is a large-scale follow-up to The General, substituting a Mississippi paddlewheel for the locomotive, and replacing the spectacle of the Civil War with a catastrophic hurricane. Keaton stars as William Canfield, Jr., a Boston collegian who returns to his deep-southern roots to reunite with his father, a crusty riverboat captain who is engaged in a bitter rivalry with a riverboat king coincidentally, the father of Willie's sweetheart. Keaton's athleticism and gift for inventive visual humor are in top form, and the cyclone that devastates a town is perhaps the most ambitious, awe-inspiring and hilarious slapstick sequence ever created.
