Jail Bait is a 1937 American short comedy film starring Buster Keaton.

Production

Buster Keaton's three previous films for Educational Pictures were filmed in New York, and for this one they returned to their Hollywood studios. This meant Buster was working with his regular director Charles Lamont and producer E. H. Allen. Buster was also reunited with writer Paul Gerard Smith who had worked with him a decade prior in the 1926 film Battling Butler.

Filming took place in December 1936 and was "a model of economy" that had enough material to make a feature film.

Buster Keaton was paid $5000 for his role in the film.
