Uncle Tom's Cabin is a 1914 American silent historical drama film directed by William Robert Daly using Vitagraph and starring Sam Lucas, Walter Hitchcock and Hattie Delaro. It was based upon playwright George L. Aiken's theatrical adaptation of Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was produced at Fort Lee, New Jersey by the newly-founded World Film studio.
Its PR proclaimed that it used "real ice, real bloodhounds, real negroes, real actors, real scenes from real life as it really was in the antebellum days".
In 2012, this film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
