Three Ages

Directed by Buster Keaton and Edward F. Cline

With Buster Keaton, Margaret Leahy, Wallace Beery, Joe Roberts and Lillian Lawrence

The rituals of courtship, romantic rivalry, and love play out three times as a man vies with a villain for the girl. In the Stone Age, the rivalry is set off by dinosaurs, a turtle used as a ouija board, and a round of golf with stones. In ancient Rome, the men display their brawn through a chariot race, using dogs instead of horses. In contemporary times, the man finds himself overcome by modernity, including a very fragile car.
