ABSTRACT

(The living room of Buster Keaton’s shabby genteel mansion in East Los Angeles. Memorabilia of his silent film days strewn about this unusually sloppy room. Stills of Buster in his various film triumphs, including The Navigator, The General, and Limelight with Charlie Chaplin. At rise, Buster, now over seventy, is alone sitting at a poker table, drinking a beer, examining his hand. He then rises to examine, one by one, the other hands on the table.)
