Up poster
The exhilarating film pays tribute to Buster Keaton's The Balloonatic by way of its slapstick, and to Hayao Miyazaki's Howl's Moving Castle by way of its watercolor palette and traveling domicile.

Scream poster
His Shocker was a misfire, a heavy metal slasher movie that was aimed perhaps a little too narrowly at its target audience -- but who would guess that Craven would make his points about the pervasiveness of television as our new fantasy realm by directly referencing Buster Keaton's Sherlock Jr.?

The Jazz Singer poster
I would expect no sane modern viewer to make it all the way through The Jazz Singer without being deeply concerned by the great narrative privilege granted to blackface, not even to the degree that I can take a deep breath in front of the 1936 Fred Astaire film Swing Time , or the 1921 Buster Keaton short The Play House - masterpieces both of them, you understand - and release it with a hissed "the times were different, weren't they?"
