Chaplin Vs. Keaton

One of the major differences between Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton's movies is that Chaplin films mostly on sets, while Keaton films on location. In Our Hospitality by Buster Keaton, Keaton films a scene of him floating down a river, and it was filmed on location. Chaplin didn't use scripts, and he sort of made up the movie as he went along. Keaton, however used a script, and his movies were much more structured than Chaplin's. Both Buster and Keaton, however, do all of their own stunts. Keaton filmed a scene in which he was hanging of of a waterfall, and Chaplin did a scene where he was skating blindfolded by a ledge. They both use special effects. Keaton does a really cool special effect where he goes inside of a movie screen and becomes part of the movie.
