Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Doo-doodoo-doo... Oh, right.One of Buster Keaton's most famous films, this silent movie from 1928 stars Keaton as a steamboat owner's son, who hasn't seen his father since he was very young. Bill Jr. is clumsy, sloppy, and likes a girl named Kitty King who is the daughter of a rival steamboat captain. Eventually his father gets fed up and tells him to return to Boston. As he's about to go, his father's steamboat is condemned and his father arrested in a situation instigated by the rival. He tears up the train ticket to Boston, and breaks his father out of jail. There's a big storm, and things blow around that really shouldn't blow around. Eventually, he manages to save his father, the rival, and the daughter from the storm.Buster Keaton's last film as an independent filmmaker. It did poorly at the box office. After this film he signed a contract with MGM, which led to the loss of his artistic independence and soon the ruin of his career.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Iconic Outfit: The famous porkpie hat is used for a gag. Bill Sr., horrified at Bill Jr.'s dumb beret, takes him to a hat shop. He tries on a succession of hats that are almost but not quite identical to his standard porkpie. When he finally gets the porkpie, he quickly throws it away. | |
