'Brotherly Love' is a 1928 part-silent, part-talkie comedy film produced and distributed by MGM and directed by Charles Reisner. It is a starring vehicle for the comedy team of Karl Dane and George K. Arthur. Young Jean Arthur supports the comedy duo. While essentially a silent film, the movie had music with sound effects and talking sequences.[http://lcweb2.loc.gov/diglib/ihas/loc.mbrs.sfdb.4029/default.html The Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Catalog: 'Brotherly Love'][http://www.afi.com/members/catalog/AbbrView.aspx?s=&Movie=3097&Display=C The AFI Catalog of Feature Films: Brotherly Love]
Some publicity photos from the film show Dane with Buster Keaton, but it is not clear whether Keaton had a cameo in the film that was later cut or merely posed for a gag photo while visiting the set.
