Down Upon the Suwanee River is a 1925 American silent drama film directed by Lem F. Kennedy and starring Charles Emmett Mack, Mary Thurman, and Arthur Donaldson.

[1][2] The spelling of the film's title, which is from the first line of the Stephen Foster song "Old Folks at Home", varied with both Swanee and Suwannee used.

As described in a film magazine review,[3] Mary, the daughter of the village "big man" Dais Norwood, loves the good-natured ne'er-do-well Bill Ruble, who denies the existence of God.

Bill returns from his voyage, having confessed to now believing in God, and the young couple and her father are reunited by the baby.

Down Upon the Suwanee River was filmed on location in Florida, and actress Mary Thurman caught malaria.
