Why has this film remained a cinematic milestone? It is considered by many film historians as one of the best movies of its time. "The General" contains messages that are relevant today. We will compare Buster Keaton and Tom Cruise. How are their films and persona alike and different? "The General" offers massive casting, battle scenes and train wrecks that are works of genius. Participants will view the film in its entirety (90 minutes), then watch it once more, dissecting, discussing and discovering the joy of a Classic Film Celebration.
