A mix of guns and mistaken identity leads to chaos in this satirical parody of William S. Hart's melodramatic westerns, finding Buster in the frozen north - "the last stop on the subway".

see i haven’t watched a buster keaton film in a while and thought that i should get back into his films and so today i decided to watch this one and like many of his other films i had a really enjoyable time with this one like it was your usual buster film where he’s getting himself into all sort of kinds of trouble here and there with others that he meets along the way but what i found to be a bit more interesting in this one was he was more serious and stern but he still had that very comedic and goofy atmosphere still going on in this one so it wasn’t like something that was worth noting but i just wanted to put that out there since he isn’t as serious in his other films like he was in this one but that’s pretty much just what i wanted to say about this one and i know it wasn’t a whole lot but i am someone who dearly loves these buster keaton films because they are such fun and chaotic ones to sit through and watch and who doesn’t love a good laugh here and there.
