Information

Cover Notes: The first feature that Buster Keaton wrote, directed, and starred in, Three Ages spoofs D.W. Griffith's historical epic Intolerance. Like that film, Three Ages follows multiple narratives across different historical eras, which Keaton packs to the brim with incredible stunts and hilarious visual gags. Across three eras - the Stone Age, Ancient Rome, and "modern times" - Keaton competes for the love of a woman (Margaret Leahy) whilst having to defend himself from a nasty bully (Wallace Beery).
