This 1920 classic short movie features Sybil Seely and Buster Keaton as two newlyweds who receive a build-it-yourself house as a wedding gift. Yet “Handy Hank”, the man that Sybil’s character has previously turned down for marriage, re-numbers the packing crates… the resulting truly unique DIY home survives a major storm only to (spoiler alert) meet its demise on the nearby rail tracks, after Keaton discovers that he accidentally built it on the wrong site and tries to move it. Keaton’s inspiration sprang from watching the short movie Home Made, produced in 1919 by the Ford Motor Company to advertise their brand new pre-fab houses for American families. p (fh)
