The description appears is entirely adequate and there is nothing of significance to add. This is the bog-standard product of the US "classic" realist style and exactly the kind of mediocre it was custom-made to mass-produce, cross-cutting to and fro in fine fashion, impeccably comprehensible, cute dog, cute kids, "picturesque poverty" (the telling phrase in Frances Marion's from a contemporary Mary Pickford film), all moderately pretty to watch, all moderately well acted, all moderately well filmed, exceedingly "talkative" with respect to intertitles, totally dull, one long predictable cliché from beginning to end.

I saw what may well be the only version to survive which lacks the first act but it is difficult to feel that it matters one wy or the other.
