You're about 80 years too late.
Buster Keaton gets a monkey as a sidekick in The Cameraman (1928), and together they make their way through a gang war in Chinatown.
It's kind of hard to top a gang war.
I'm just sayin'.

Happy Houdini Day!
Happy 137th Birthday to Harry Houdini, Buster Keaton's god father.
While it may be merely a myth that Houdini christened Keaton with the nickname "Buster" after witnessing the infant take a tumble down the stairs, it is well documented that Houdini was, in fact, his god father, and clearly taught him a thing or two, as evidenced in this clip from Sherlock, Jr. (at about 5:03):
Thank you, Harry Houdini. Happy Birthday.
