The Paleface is the title of a Buster Keaton two-reeler comedy film made in 1922 in which he unwittingly wanders into an Indian tribe while chasing a butterfly. But these Indians have resolved to kill the first white man who enters their home because they are being forced off their land by white oil tycoons. Keaton eventually becomes accepted by the tribe as "Little Chief Paleface" and tries to stop the oil tycoons from displacing them.
