I'm a big Keaton fan, to the point that I've put flowers on his grave in Forest Lawn. During all the years I lived in NYC I was able to attend at least 2 and perhaps 3 extensive Keaton film festivals. As a result I've seen every silent feature and two - reeler he made, most of the shorts where he costarred with Fatty Arbuckle, and most of his sound work too including several of the sad mediocre films teaming Keaton with Jimmy Durante. I'm don't think there is a 21st century Keaton. The closest anyone has come to being Keaton's heir is Jackie Chan in the films he made in Hong Kong, not in his later Hollywood movies.
