Donato and Daughter, released on video as Dead to Rights, is a 1993 American crime drama television film directed by Rod Holcomb and written by Robert Roy Pool, based on the 1988 novel of the same name by Jack Early. It stars Charles Bronson and Dana Delany as a father and daughter, both LAPD detectives, who must team up to stop a serial killer. It aired on CBS on September 21, 1993.

The project appealed to Delany because of its focus on the relationship between father and daughter, which she found more compelling than the typical overdone serial killer plots. She appreciated the absence of a romantic subplot, valuing the opportunity to portray a strong, multifaceted female character centered on family and work. Delany also took the role to work with Charles Bronson, describing him as tough but sweet and funny, often lightening tense moments with impromptu musical performances. To prepare for her role, Delany spent time with police officers.

The film is praised for being entertaining, with strong performances from Delany and Bronson. The photography, detailed sets, and moody score add to its appeal. Delany’s portrayal is compared to Prime Suspect but still feels original, while Bronson shows a warmer side of his usual tough-guy persona. Though the film attempts to explore complex relationships, it works better as a straightforward thriller.
