An unusually good two-reel offering

A revival of a former Edison success, with Mary Fuller, Augustus Phillips and Marc MacDermott in the leads. The jealous prince contrives to lure his successful rival into a duel. While this is in progress Yvette is giving a demonstration of her ability to act both comedy and tragedy. A fine creation throughout, with considerable suspense toward the close when the prince falls in a vain effort to kill his adversary. Marc MacDermott played the part of the prince very convincingly. An unusually good two-reel offering. - The Moving Picture World, March 21, 1914
