Go West / Battling Butler - Ultimate Edition

With his trademark deadpan demeanor and his gift for inventive visual humor, Buster Keaton's unique brand of comedy has proven to be a timeless source of laughter and an enduring influence upon several generations of screen comics. This special double-disc DVD showcases two of Keaton's lesser-known films, newly mastered in HD from 35mm nitrate elements preserved by the Library of Congress.

Go West

Keaton plays an idealistic young man known as "Friendless", who rides the rails to a dude ranch, forms a sentimental attachment with an especially lovable cow, and, in the film's breathtaking climax, finds himself at the center of a cattle stampede trough the streets of Los Angeles.

Battling Butler

Based on a popular stage musical, Battling Butler stars Keaton as a pampered socialite who pretends to be a famed prizefighter in order to impress his girlfriend's bullying brothers. Once begun, however, the charade is not easy to end, and Butler - aided by his personal butler (Snitz Edwards) - must endure physical training, sparring, and, unless he can stop it, a title bout with the "Alabama Murderer".
