One Week. 1920. USA. Written and directed by Buster Keaton and Eddie Cline.
With Buster Keaton, Sybil Seely, Joe Roberts. Newlyweds (Keaton and Seely) are given a portable house as a gift. It should take only one week to put the house together, but Keaton's rival has switched the numbers on the crates containing the parts, making the project much more challenging. 19 minutes.
The Lonedale Operator. 1911. USA. Directed by D. W. Griffith. Written by Mack Sennett. With Blanche Sweet, Francis J. Grandon. When her father becomes ill, a young woman takes over the telegraph at a lonely western railroad station. She soon gets word that the next train will deliver the payroll for a mining company.
