This film illustrates the work of Marceline Day, a star of Silent Hall of Fame.

"The Cameraman" is the quintessence of a romantic comedy. It was the first film of Buster Keaton after he signed a contract with MGM, and before the studio was able to stifle his unique creativity and effectively grind his career to a halt. In this film Buster Keaton is still at the top of his form and he creates a string of breathtaking gags, which are masterfully connected with a nice story and a beautiful romance with the outstanding silent movie star Marceline Day.
