Reception

[edit | edit source]

Marion Russell in The Billboard wrote, "Amazingly beautiful photography marks the high lights of this picture, seconded by realistic acting in which character types predominate. Eugenie Besserer gives a stunning performance of a distraught mother. Two charmingly wistful impersonations are contributed by Pauline Starke and Gloria Hope as the youthful heroines. Mr. Macauley is to be congratulated upon a tense, dramatic picture, which grips despite the basic idea is one of hate and vengeance".[5]

The Picturegoer called it "fair entertainment".[6]
