criticism

Paimann's film lists summed up: “The subject, based primarily on purely social conditions, is not particularly strong, initially more original than towards the end, but gives Harvey the opportunity to achieve a natural, well-rounded performance, which contrasts with the less appropriate male actors. The presentation, interiors and exterior shots are very pretty as well as the photography. "
