    > He was truly an innovator that makes today’s “films of people talking to each other” look amateurish.

    I feel you could have said the first part without attempting to critique films with a different aesthetic aspiration.

    I just watched Eisenberg's "A Real Pain" last night, and there is no way that any of the things Keaton was good at would have improved that film at all. Which is not to say that Keaton was not an innovator .. just that there is more than one aesthetic goal for films, and room for all of them.
