The Lure of the Mask (1915) User Reviews

The story does not lend itself to the screen

Another of the Masterpictures. and produced in four reels from the story of Harold McGrath. In this picture an unusual number of beautiful settings have been used, the usual excellent photographic quality of the American production is evident, and in fact there are a great many fine points about "The Lure of the Mask," although the story itself does not lend itself to the screen as well as some others. Frequently the sub-titles are at fault in that they are unprofessional in arrangement. An excellent cast has played the picture, including Harold Lockwood, and Irving Cummings. - The Moving Picture World, May 22, 1915
