The Cook is a 1918 silent film staring Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle and Buster Keaton. The movie is a slapstick comedy and focuses on goings-on at a high-end restaurant with Arbuckle as the Cook and Keaton as the Waiter.
The film is notable for a scene spoofing the 1918 Theda Bara film Salomé, with Arbuckle dancing around in drag.
The movie was a lost film for several decades before being uncovered in Norway. It is currently available on DVD as The Cook and Other Treasures.
