    A heartful story

    Beverly Simmons and Fay Holden mainly sustain the picture, a good will fable about a wealthy lady who, after naming her dog her heir, is sued by her relatives and put in a mental institution, from where she runs away finding refuge in a barber shop where a poor family takes care of her not knowing who she really is. This is one of the few movies little child actress Baverly Simmons filmed and she is one of the film's interests. Her acting and interaction with Fay Holden gives the movie a heart. Frank McHugh plays the role of the barber in a convincing way. Not a great movie but nice to watch, enhancing good will feelings in a well wrapped story. Recommended.
