Anecdotes
Lillian Gish and Dorothy Gish both started working for D.W. Griffith in the early days of American Mutoscope & Biograph. While it's been claimed that Griffith was immediately infatuated with Lillian, in their first film for him, Biograph's An Unseen Enemy (1912), he thought they were twins. According to Lillian's autobiography, he had to tie different colored hair ribbons on the girls to tell them apart and give them direction: "Red, you hear a strange noise. Run to your sister. Blue, you're scared too. Look toward me, where the camera is.".

Attic:Gish and Griffith do their thing

This short is available as part of Hollywood's Attic VHS tape set. It is on the Griffith Shorts tape #2.

The Gish sisters star and Griffith directs with his standard assortments of cuts and word titles. The music score is difference for other Attic tapes, but it may or may not be the original.

The tape runs a little on the fast end (11 minutes) and the short subject could be given better treatment in a longer movie, but otherwise good. Very few people are credited. While more are credited than usual Griffith films, there are still lots of extras and possible cameo spotting may be fun for buffs.

The story could easily be remade, but it will likely remain in the attic like most early cinema.

As standard the short finishes with "The End"
