Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuring the filming of the scene in which Buster Keaton is being swept downstream towards the waterfall, he was attached to a 'holdback' cable, concealed in the river. During the filming of the scene, the cable broke, and he was hurled down the rapids, battered by rocks and limbs, and was only barely able to grab an overhanging branch, which held him just long enough for the crew to reach and rescue him. This scene remains in the final print, and is fairly easy to spot. Just look for the point at which Keaton is being pulled downriver and 1) he suddenly looks back towards the camera, and 2) his speed in the water doubles, almost causing him to fly out of frame.
- GoofsWhen the donkey refuses to move from the rail tracks, the engineer and others curve the tracks around him. The long shot that shows the train moving past the donkey, however, shows the tracks back in a straight line.
- Quotes
Joseph Canfield: Jim - I've been trying to forget this fued-why can't you do the same?
James Canfield: No! - I came a long way to kill him-and I'm going to do it tonight!

Our Hospitality
Our Hospitality was a good old comedy from Buster Keaton and i must admit that this is the first film that i saw from him cause im usually Chaplin guy but i must say that Buster also had a good sense of humor and he give me some laughs in this film.Story here was very smartly done and it teached us that we need to respect and love our neighbours cause we never know when we will need their help.Jokes were funny and some stunts looked very good and convincing .Our Hospitality was a good old comedy
