Her Mother's Weakness (1914) User Reviews

This is quite a strong number

[deickemeyer · 18 August 2018]

This is the story of a woman kleptomaniac, who leaves her daughter after disgracing her. Later, after serving a prison sentence, she reforms and tries to aid others who are tempted. The reconciliation scene in the court room was effectively handled. Kate Bruce as the mother gives one of the quiet, forceful performances that have made her conspicuous among screen favorites, in parts of this type. This is quite a strong number. - The Moving Picture World, May 30, 1914
