This is a colorized still photo from"Don't" - 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.
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.
Bear in mind it was easier to entertain people 101 years ago...
