Starring: Buster Keaton, Tom McGuire, Ernest Torrence, Tom Lewis, Marion Byron, Joe Keaton

 Buster Keaton is in fine form in this fun flick about a son (Keaton) coming home to Dad, Steamboat Bill (Ernest Torrence), who owns a rundown steamboat. The town's banker (Tom McGuire) owns a new, luxury steamboat and is attempting to force Bill out of business. Meanwhile, Bill Jr. likes the banker's daughter Kitty (Marion Byron), which is not satisfactory with the dastardly banker. The stunts are good, and the final cyclone scene is a classic.
