One sheet silent stone litho movie poster for the 1925 silent comedy film Cold Turkey, produced by Mack Sennett and starring Alice Day. The two-reel film (a "Pathécomedy") was directed by Edward F. Cline and featured a story co-written by Frank Capra and Jefferson Moffitt.
Film Synopsis
The short film centers around newlywed couple Alice and Jimmie Logan.
Plot: The couple is preparing for a celebratory dinner with Jimmie's two roughneck brothers and Alice's mother. Chaos ensues when alcohol is accidentally spilled into the soup. The main pandemonium occurs after a live parrot gets inside the cooked turkey, causing the bird to appear to "trot about," leading to scares, tumbles, and general mayhem typical of a Mack Sennett slapstick comedy.
