Featured review
The picture is bound to have considerable popularity
The Film Import and Trading Company are releasing this week a picture much in the style of the well-known "Nero." It is based upon one of Schiller's poems and the scene of it is laid in ancient Greece, which gives opportunity for a lavish display of costume, much processional work, and some very beautiful scenery, not to mention exceedingly fine acting, to all of which Ambrosio has done the fullest justice. The result is that we have a series of beautifully staged pictures which please the eye, although possibly the story, which deals with the theme of friendship and some little love interest, may not strike an American audience as too familiar. But aside from this matter, the film is photographically very fine. The acting, too, is such as would do credit to the stage of any country, and on these grounds the picture is bound to have considerable popularity. - The Moving Picture World, December 4, 1909
