The Story of Lavinia (1913) User Reviews

Falls so far short as to seem amateurish

We find in this picture a good idea that has been used in the same way a number of times before. In Lavinia's coming to the college there is a very pleasing group of scenes. There is also a most dramatic series of fire scenes. These parts make one wonder why the rest of the offering falls so far short as to seem, beside them, amateurish. The audience watched the picture closely and seemed to get much pleasure from it. The photography in the important scenes is good. - The Moving Picture World, March 22, 1913
