Don't is a 1925 American silent comedy film directed by Alfred J. Goulding, starring Sally O'Neil, John Patrick, Bert Roach, and Ethel Wales, and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film is one of the B pictures the studio produced to keep the Loews circuit and other cinemas supplied.
The screenplay by Agnes Christine Johnston is based on the story "Don't You Care!" by Rupert Hughes.[1]
As described in a film magazine review, Mr. Moffat selects Abel Totem as a prospective husband for his daughter Tracey, but the parent-defying flapper engages in a school-girl flirtation with Gilbert Jenkins which develops into a real love affair. Gilbert owns an automobile and the rebellious Tracey, dodging a family outing at an amusement park, goes riding with him. They have a variety of whimsical adventures, and in the end Gilbert wins out with the family and Mr. Moffat agrees to their marriage.
Don't is considered to be a lost film.[2]
