That's My Daddy is a 1928 American silent comedy starring Reginald Denny and Barbara Kent. The film's story is credited to Denny; though the direction is credited to Fred C. Newmeyer, Denny claimed to have directed most of the film himself.[1] The film survives and has been preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive.[2]

Preservation[edit]

After being unavailable to the public for many decades, the film was screened at the Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto, California, on August 24, 2007 (on a double bill with Denny's 1925 film I'll Show You the Town), and again on August 13, 2014.[3][4] In both cases, the films were introduced and accompanied by the organist Dennis James.
