Joseph Frank "Buster" Keaton (October 4, 1895 – February 1, 1966) was an American actor, vaudevillian, comedian, filmmaker, stunt performer, and writer.〔Obituary ''Variety'', February 2, 1966, page 63.〕 He was best known for his silent films, in which his trademark was physical comedy with a consistently stoic, deadpan expression, earning him the nickname "The Great Stone Face".〔(Roger Ebert: The Films of Buster Keaton ).〕 Buster Keaton (his lifelong stage name) was recognized as the seventh-greatest director by ''Entertainment Weekly''.〔(Greatest Film Directors and Their Best Films ).〕 In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Keaton the 21st-greatest male star of Classic Hollywood Cinema. Critic Roger Ebert wrote of Keaton's "extraordinary period from 1920 to 1929, () he worked without interruption on a series of films that make him, arguably, the greatest actor-director in the history of the movies."〔 His career declined afterward with a dispiriting loss of his artistic independence when he was hired by MGM, which resulted in a crippling alcoholism that ruined his family life. However, he recovered in the 1940s, remarried and revived his career to a degree as an honored comic performer for the rest of his life, earning an Academy Honorary Award in 1958. Orson Welles stated that Keaton's ''The General'' is "the greatest comedy ever made, the greatest Civil War film ever made, and perhaps the greatest film ever made."〔Orson Welles interview, from the Kino Nov 10, 2009 Blu-Ray edition of The General〕 A 2002 worldwide poll by ''Sight & Sound'' ranked Keaton's ''The General'' as the 15th best film of all time. Three other Keaton films received votes in the magazine's survey: ''Our Hospitality'', ''Sherlock, Jr.'', and ''The Navigator''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bfi.org.uk/sightandsound/topten/index.html )〕 ==Career==
