The Laugh on Dad (1912) watch online HD

A romantic comedy in which the objecting parent locks up the heroine to keep her from eloping and then has a good laugh telling the cowboys about it. He gets one of them to dress up and put on a veil to fool the waiting lover. But the young people have already stolen a march on the objecting parent. They see through the scheme and hoist Dad with his own petard. Dad sees the elopement and laughs heartily, thinking that what is really the daughter is the dummy. The photographs are excellent; the conduct of the story, which has been used before, is good and the picture effective as a fair Western comedy. The picture is a very good program filler, light and pleasing. - The Moving Picture World, January 20, 1912
