Camille Keaton is not Buster Keaton’s granddaughter. I know his granddaughter and helped his nephew build their family tree. We found no trace of a connection between Camille and Buster.

What happens when a respectable middle-aged father, teacher and writer decides one day to abandon his ordinary routine and embark on an unexpected journey toward an unknowable fate, following the ghost of Buster Keaton and a vision of a bear? In Tim Bowling's fifth novel, The Heavy Bear, the main character, a sort of contemporary version of Joyce's Leopold Bloom who just happens to be named Tim Bowling, spends an intense late-summer day in downtown Edmonton. Haunted by the slender sadness of the world, and unable to face his afternoon class, Tim Bowling finds himself pulled into an escapade revolving around an antique toy, a capuchin monkey and a young student our narrator likens to Pippi Longstocking. Accompanied by the shade of the silent-film star Buster Keaton, and the bear-shaped spirit of the American poet Delmore Schwartz, Bowling's Tim Bowling must confront, with equal parts humour and sincerity, a fundamental problem of our age: how to make and maintain human connections in a world that seems intent on destroying them?

"The Cook and Other Treasures" starring Buster and Roscoe Arbuckle. This short was considered lost until 1998; additional footage was discovered and added in 2002. This edition combines the sources to approximate the original 1918 U.S. release. The dvd also features two additional silent shorts: Arbuckle's "Reckless Romeo" and Harold Lloyd's "Number, Please?".

"Film" is the collaboration with Keaton and playwright Sam Beckett. The dvd also features "Film" outtakes as well as a TV presentation of the American theatrical production of Beckett's masterpiece "Waiting For Godot" featuring Burgess Meredith and Zero Mostel. Many say that Beckett wrote "Godot" with Keaton in mind. Now you can watch and weigh in.

"NotFilm" is a feature length movie about the making of "Film" with many outtakes, stills and comments by James Karen, Leonard Maltin and many more. It also features a 45 minute discussion about Keaton by his longtime friend James Karen.

Taken together "Film" and "NotFilm" are essential viewing for anyone interested in Keaton's work and methods.
