| | | | | | The Iron Mule Short Comedy Film Festival | | |  | | |  With Guest Judge Michael Kupperman
"The Iron Mule" is a 1925 slapstick comedy by the great silent comedian Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, featuring Buster Keaton as an Indian! The name also describes the movies we love to show; tough, burly, uncompromising shorts which can't be stopped.
We are a collective of filmmakers and film lovers who meet monthly to celebrate funny and inventive short cinema among friends. Join us if you dare!
