Tad's Swimming Hole is a 1918 American silent shortcomedy film directed by King Vidor. It was the fourth of a series of twenty films funded by Judge Willis Brown as both moral lessons and promotional films.
Like many American films of the time, Tad's Swimming Hole was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut all closeups of naked boys facing the camera.[1]
