It carries the interest throughout
deickemeyer28 July 2017
This three-reel offering is remarkable for the ingenuity with which Irving Cummings plays the part of the twin brothers. So nicely is the dialogue and stage business timed that there is no hitch in the performance of the various scenes. The story is not a powerful one, except for the very dramatic moments in the last reel, but it carries the interest throughout. The brothers love the same girl, played by Edith Lyle. One of them, Burt, is a villain; the other, Albert, is beloved by the girl. In the forepart of the story, Burt forges his own signature and throws the blame on Albert, who is imprisoned. After Albert's release come the strongest scenes, wherein Burt dies of heart failure, and Albert assumes his place, letting no one know except the girl. A good offering. - The Moving Picture World, March 1, 1913
