Hot or Cold

Two rival colleges bury the hatchet and hold a dinner in celebration. This doesn't stop Al St. John and Harold Goodwin from trying to annoy each other, and the audience as well.

It's an adequate but uninspired late silent comedy short from the usually reliable Jack White unit, mostly because of the largely mechanical nature of the gags. It does have a great snowball fight at the end, in which all the techniques of pie-fighting are transferred to a different medium. I won't say it saves the picture, but after the first half, it's a welcome sequence.
