There is in the picture a marked feeling for character
deickemeyer15 January 2017
A good picture of a country town masher. As Lester Cuneo plays him, he was no "boob." In fact, as a lady's man, he had the men of the theatrical company that was stranded in his town beaten a mile. He had saved his money and was no dresser, yet a very pretty village girl (Florence Dye) had engaged herself to him. When the players come he is smitten with the charms of Dolly Flasher (Myrtle Stedman). She "works him" for carfare back to New York. Later, when he follows her and fails to make money in the city, Dolly and her friends of the chorus, chip in and pay his way back home. There is in the picture a marked feeling for character and it has an entertaining freshness. The situation is new and its whole working out, while not realistic, is substantial and good. The "boob" reaches his home town just in time to see the wedding party of his former girl. - The Moving Picture World, August 24, 1912
