In this 1923 short, Buster Keaton decides the best cure for a broken heart is a sailing trip around the world. Hilarity Ensues.
Not to be confused with the 1970s television show The Love Boat.
A version of "The Love Nest" can be seen at Google Video.note
"The Love Nest" contains examples of:
- Klingon Promotion: Subverted — after Buster (accidentally) sends the Captain overboard, he dons the captain's hat and starts issuing orders, but it turns out the Captain is not quite dead.
- Outside Ride: Buster spends a night on the gangway.
- Water Is Air: Simultaneously played straight and subverted — Buster is able to walk into the water without any breathing gear and shoot a fish with an ordinary rifle, but the gunsmoke travels to the water's surface in a bubble.
