Abstract
This paper examines Buster Keaton's much‐maligned Columbia shorts (1939–41) through the lens of late 1930s ‘old‐time’ slapstick revivalism. Mobilizing the concept of ‘mis‐remembrance’ (adapted from Barbara Myerhoff), the paper begins by considering how, by the late 1930s, Keaton was nostalgically misidentified as a protégé of the Keystone studios, mistakenly thought of as a veteran of slapstick's ‘pie and chase’ days of the early 1910s. It then argues that transformations in Keaton's late comic form are best seen in the light of the same process, a mis‐remembrance that assimilated Keaton's performances to the throwback style of Sennett‐era knockabout. Finally, the paper locates the origins of that nostalgia in changes in small‐town and rural cultures in 1930s America, arguing that the retrospective cast of Depression‐era regional cultures created a space in which residual forms, like early film slapstick, could still be enjoyed for their ‘old‐time’ appeal.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
