Three Ages, The - dvd

Love hasn’t changed much over the ages. Or has it? In Buster Keaton’s first independent feature film, he parodies love and romance across the prehistoric, roman and ‘modern’ ages. A keen satire of DW Griffith's Intolerance, this early classic from Keaton, arguably cinema's greatest-ever comic, foreshadows the historical comedy of Mel Brooks and Monty Python.
