Alice's Egg Plant (1925)




It starts off as a typically amusing 1920s style cartoon, with funny gags involving the animals' anatomy doing improbable and crazy things (the cat using his tail as a whip to get the lazy hens back to work). But things get REALLY wild when a Communist Rooster (yeah, you're reading this right) called "The Little Red Henski of Moscow, USSR" comes to town. The Bolshevik Bird then gets (literally) on his soap box and agitates the chickens to go on strike against Alice and her cat! How does it all end? Trust me, it's even more bizarre than what I've described so far! If this all sounds crazy and outrageous in print, wait til you see it on film! You will pound the floor laughing at this one!
