A remarkable swimming feat

[deickemeyer · 6 January 2018]

A two-reel feature number in which the chief figure is a famous diving woman, Mlle. Ideal. The remarkable swimming feat in the second reel, when she saves the life of a child about to be swept over Niagara Falls in a boat, is the strongest thing in the offering. The fore part of the story seemed rather below the Vitagraph standard, being in the nature of a common love intrigue, involving the husband of one woman and the lover of another. The spectacular features are of chief interest in this. - The Moving Picture World, November 22, 1913
