THE GIRLS AND DADDY (1909) Griffith Biograph rough footage

Postby Richard M Roberts » Thu Apr 27, 2023 4:13 am

Here's an early D. W. Griffith-directed Biograph in rough-footage form, scenes in shooting order before editing(MOMA has a number of these in their Biograph holdings). Features in this 1909 short is Florence Lawrence, Dorothy West, David Miles, Dorothy Bernard.

imd(um)b claims that Griffith can be seen in blackface at the Black and Tans Ball......maybe:
