Stock properties for producing pathos
deickemeyer25 October 2016
A reviewer, who sees nearly every picture that is made, sees very often situations that might be called stock properties for producing pathos. They don't affect him any more, but he remembers the time when they did. This picture has very little in it that is new; to the reviewer it was slow; but the people around him watched it closely, following the fortunes of the "Kid" downward from the estate of a successful prize fighter to the street. The girl he liked had dismissed him and he was neglecting his old mother. The girl became a Salvation Army lassie and she found him again, and converted him. To a man who knows street life, it doesn't powerfully convince. Miss Ormi Hawley is the lassie and Mr. Jack Holliday is the "Kid." The photographs are good. It is a fair filler. - The Moving Picture World, April 20, 1912
