Neighbors is a 1920 short film directed by Buster Keaton and Eddie Cline.In this 1920 two-reeler, Buster Keaton and Virginia Fox are a lower-class Romeo and Juliet who live in neighboring tenements. All they want is to get married, but their parents, and especially the girl's hulking, intimidating father, get in the way.Not to be confused with the 1981 Black Comedy feature of the same name, which starred Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. Also not to be confused with any other film or television series of a similar title. | |

Neighbors (1920) / int_23b059ec | comment |
Bedsheet Ghost: An extremely racist gag. A black woman is carrying home laundry in a cart, not knowing that Buster is hiding inside. She gets home, only for the black woman and her entire family to flee in terror when Buster rises up from the sheets and becomes a bedsheet ghost. | |

Human Ladder | |
Neighbors (1920) / int_6d6b8aa | comment |
Human Ladder: Buster and two of his buddies do this so Buster can get access to the girl on the third floor of the opposite tenement. Specifically, there's a sight gag in which one guy comes out of the first floor, another comes out of the second floor, Buster comes out of the third floor, and they stride across the courtyard together. | |

Blackface: Invoked by mud in the face, with some social satire involved, as the local cop is quick to arrest Buster when Buster looks like a black man due to being covered in mud, but lets Buster go when Buster washes his face off. | |
