The scenes do not possess much genuine feeling
deickemeyer18 February 2019
A four-reel production of a wierd, uncanny sort, written by Grace Cunard and produced by Francis Ford, who also play the leading roles. The opening scenes picture the manner in which Rosa falls in love with the young violinist and comes to live with him, the scene being Paris. He plays in a cabaret and she gradually is lured into the gay night life. Two reels are devoted to these opening scenes, which could readily have been shown in one. The story begins after the girl leaves the violinist. He finds a secret passageway into the cellar of the cabaret. Here he goes mad and plays the air he composed. He drags the girl and her lover into his lair and they, in turn, go mad. These scenes do not possess much genuine feeling and the tone of the production is not the best. - The Moving Picture World, September 26, 1914
