The Little Girl Next Door (II) (1912) User Reviews

Of heart interest in this story there is much, at times too much

Splendid drama. Nina Rhoades is the author; she has builded well; and she has been especially fortunate in the assignments to the various characters. Of heart interest in this story there is much, at times too much for outward physical comfort. One could hardly wish for a stronger dramatic situation than that where Marc McDermott, as Mr. Hinsdale, takes into his home Edna Hammel, portraying Joy, the blind girl, and there discovers that it is his own granddaughter. In the awakening of the great public's heart to the afflictions of humanity's less fortunate ones the Edison Company is doing an incalculable service. The others in the cast of this drama, all of whom are deserving of mention, are Gertrude McCoy, Leonie Flugrath, Elizabeth Miller and Augustus Phillips. - The Moving Picture World, October 5, 1912
