Don't Call Me Little Girl

Don't Call Me Little Girl is a 1921 American silent comedy film directed by Joseph Henabery and starring Mary Miles Minter.

[2] As described in various film magazine reviews,[3][4][5][6] Jerry Doubleday (Minter) is an eighteen-year-old girl, who arrives with her mother to stay with her aunt Joan (Stonehouse) ahead of her wedding.

Aunt Joan's engagement to Monty Wade (Patrick) has gone on for ten years but the wedding seems on course to finally take place - until Jerry has other ideas.

Determined to prove to her mother that she is no longer a little girl, Jerry arrives at the station dressed in the most modern fashions, and immediately "borrows" an automobile to take for a spin.

Jerry has to resort to a feigned suicide for Monty to admit his feelings for her, but in the end all is resolved so that a double Doubleday wedding can take place.
