Are you sure? They have the same last name, but neither IMDB nor Wikipedia says they’re related. In fact, both sites give Theresa Russell’s birth name as Theresa Paup.
However, Ken Russell’s daughter Victoria played Sally Simpson in Tommy.

IIRC, the original trailer for the flick said that she was his daughter, but I could be misremembering.

Can anyone think of a woman director directing her daughter?
[/QUOTE]
I can think of a few, although I had to go to IMDB to hunt down the details:[ul]
[li]Penny Marshall directed daughter Tracy Reiner in four movies, most notably A League of Their Own. [/li][li]Elaine May directed daughter Jeannie Berlin to an Oscar nomination (Best Supporting Actress for The Heatbreak Kid).[/li][li]Allison Anders directed daughters Devon (in Border Radio) and Tiffany (in Gas Food Lodging and Mi vida loca), although I think these were small roles.[/li][/ul]

Robert Zemeckis’s daughter was in Forrest Gump, as one of the children on the bus when Forrest was about to start grade school.
Not a major role, and she’s not an actor now (that I know of), but I think it still applies…

Garry Marshall directed his granddaughters Lilly and Charlotte in The Princess Diaries, and it was there or in another of his movies where he named the high school Lilly and Charlotte something or other.

The Dead was John Huston’s last film and it starred daughter Angelica. Prizzi’s Honor is a little more interesting since Angelica won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar. Back in 1948, John directed The Treasure of Sierra Madre, featuring his father, Walter Huston, who won a Best Actor Oscar, with John taking Best Director and Screenplay.

His son Tony also got a writing nomination for The Dead and has an acting credit in The List of Adrian Messenger.

Paraphrased: name a film in which a father directs his daughter – that is, dad’s the director, daughter’s an actress in the film.
After time ran out I thought of guessing Bryce Dallas Howard and Ron Howard, but even then I was not answering the actual question…
…so without looking it up, can you think of an answer?
…WITH looking it, can you think of an answer?

Without looking at any other responses:
The Dead by John Huston
Clerks II
Godfather 3
Judd Apatow directed his two young daughters in Knocked Up.
Chris Columbus directed daughter Eleanor Columbus in the first two Harry Potter films, as background character Susan Bones. And by “background”, I mean that literally, she appears in the background in almost any scene with a crowd shot whether it makes sense for her character or not.

I started one a month or so ago, got about 25 questions done, and then… stalled.

Well, we won’t put any timelines on it since that would just, you know, encourage the enemy or something. You just keep working!
Glad to hear it! They always frustrate the hell out of me, but they’re still fun!
