BEFORE THE TALKIES - EP 1 | BUSTER KEATON'S ‘THE GOAT’ (1921) | SILENT COMEDY MASTERPIECE

Описание: Welcome to Before the Talkies - Fablenama’s journey into the world of silent cinema.

We begin with The Goat (1921), a short film that captures the unmatched brilliance of Buster Keaton, one of cinema’s earliest and most enduring pioneers. This series is our humble attempt to bring timeless classics to newer generations - not just for entertainment, but for education and appreciation. These films are more than relics; they are roots.

Keaton’s performance in The Goat is a masterclass in restraint. Long before the age of method acting or high-definition closeups, he gave us microscopic gestures that hinted at oceans of subtext - without ever spelling them out. His stone face said more than a thousand words could.

Today, we applaud performances that dare to do less, to trust the audience. Keaton was doing it a century ago - with no dialogue, no background score, and no safety nets.

Watch this legendary silent comedy, rediscover the language of expression, and witness the genius that continues to shape cinema today.
