The General



The General starring as Buster Keaton.
Accompanied by Clark Wilson on the Mighty Wurlitzer Organ


Consistently ranked among the greatest films ever made, Buster Keaton’s “The General” is so brilliantly conceived and executed that it continues to inspire awe and laughter with every viewing. Rejected by the Confederate army as unfit and taken for a coward by his beloved Annabelle Lee (Marion Mack), young Johnny Gray (Keaton) is given a chance to redeem himself when Yankee spies steal his cherished locomotive. Johnny wages a one-man war against hijackers, an errant cannon and the unpredictable hand of fate while roaring along the iron rails.
