    We don't see how it can possibly interest anyone very deeply

    That this old-style, amateurish script is pretty well acted keeps the offering from dragging too much, but we don't see how it can possibly interest anyone very deeply. For a moment, it gets a bit of added interest from its showing of a motion picture company at work. John Adair, the author, should have credit for thinking up the scheme of having Joe's face seen in the motion picture and so getting his alibi and Augustus Phillips, Bessie Learn and Robert Brower, the actors, should have credit, The photography is without quality. If producers of pictures could only hear what is said about them, not about this one in particular, but about most of them. There is something wrong. - The Moving Picture World, May 24, 1913
