Not at the races


Hollywood Handicap (1938)

Directed by Buster Keaton this film stars a number of Hollywood's stars as themselves. A group of stable hands that also work as a band are given a race horse.

This is a simple comedy that is not any huge shakes and kind of disappointing for having Buster Keaton involved. The jokes are nothing special and neither are the cameos really. Compared to the well crafted set ups of Keaton's silent films this is a very lazy effort.

2/5
