Amusing comedy with the inimitable picture comedian, Max Linder, in a favorite part, is pleasingly presented in this short film. A number of young men are suitors for the hand of a playful Miss, who tells them that the one that first joins her on top of the mountain shall have her heart. She starts on ahead to ascend the mountain, a series of pretty scenes, and the young men follow in a wild scramble, at the end of which Max comes in last. The girl then gives the winner a paper on which she has drawn the outlines of a heart, and, turning to Max, she gives him her hand. It is the droll and earnest manner in which the action is carried out that makes the picture go. Less pantomime would have been better, but it is, perhaps, too much to expect a French comedy altogether free from pantomime. - The New York Dramatic Mirror, May 28, 1910
