1. Steamboat Bill, Jr. - A (My favorite Keaton film. The storm sequence is unbelieveable, non-stop action and it has lots of silly, fun, and romantic moments. One of my favorite film endings)

3. The General - A-
4. Our Hospitality - A- (Lots of inventive comedy gags here and I love the cute little dog that follows Buster on the railroad)
4. Seven Chances - A- (Another terrific action finale)
5. Convict 13 - A- (My favorite Keaton short is this bit of slapstick in which Buster mistakenly ends up in prison)
