Featured review
Fairly decent little flick.
I'm not sure why this little movie has received such a low vote from the voters here at IMDb. It's not a bad film - and is, in fact, much better than a lot of the tedious material being churned out by the likes of Edison and Biograph back in the early years of the 20th Century. It's actually an excerpt from the novel by a chap named Marchmont in which the hero, a fellow with the heroic name of Hamylton Tregethner attempts to dissuade a fellow soldier from insisting on a sword duel for some unexplained offence. The other chap - whose trousers are so tight when he turns his back to the camera it looks as if he isn't wearing any - insists on duelling however, only to storm off in a huff after Tregethner nicks him on the arm. Ralph Stuart cuts quite a dashing figure as the hero.
