User Reviews

A large and fairly representative audience was favorably impressed by this three-part offering. It is one of those "heart of a lady crook" pictures and has been extremely well put on. Its sets are mostly interiors, rooms of wealthy people; they are large, perfectly appointed though lavishly. The acting (Arthur Johnson's company plays it) makes a strong appeal and is very meritorious. Then the photography is clear. The story is its weakest point; but even that as played, interests. Lottie Briscoe, in the titular role, not only puts the appeal of her sex in the picture by her acting, but appears in a bewildering number of splendid new dresses and some of them most becoming. Howard Mitchell, as the lady crook's nifty husband, is the most unfortunately chosen player in the cast. He acts well, but seldom looks his part. Arthur Johnson plays the rich victim with his usual effectiveness. Florence Hackett has a minor role, but shows her ability in it. A good offering, not a great one. - The Moving Picture World, January 10, 1914
