      There always will be something unnatural in mermaids and gods in motion pictures

      An artist (Francis X. Bushman) painting near the shore falls asleep and has a dream, which is the story of the picture. There are two girls in the dream; one is a human sweetheart, one is a mermaid, Neptune's daughter, played by Martha Russell. There always will be something unnatural in mermaids and gods in motion pictures; but in a fantasy such as this they become acceptable even while very unconvincing. Miss Russell gives character to the picture by her interpretation of the sea-maiden turned human and out of water. The natural ending is for her to go back to it and drown. It is set near a rocky shore and gives views of waves breaking quietly. A fair offering. - The Moving Picture World, September 28, 1912
