Cocteau's Shit



A clip from The Blood Of A Poet. If you watch enough Buster Keaton silent shorts, you see just how derivative the Frenchman was of Keaton- from Sherlock Jr. to The Electric House to Steamboat Bill.

Not only was Cocteau derivative, but he was inferior in terms of the special effects, even though his film came a decade after Keaton made it big.
