User Reviews

A Western love story, with thrills enough to hold the interest of the audience and keep them wondering what is coming next. It is illustrative of a trait in the character of a Mexican which may or may not be true, but which, nevertheless, adds interest to the picture. One objection to the film is the carrying off of a girl. It is not pleasant to see even pictured insults, and it would be quite as well for the motion picture industry, and the influence of the motion picture, if such scenes were relegated to the background along with the murders and suicides which rioted across the screens some months ago. They add no touch that is beneficial and they are distinctly objectionable to a great many people. Otherwise this film has much to commend it, in dramatic quality, acting and photography. The Essanay players have grasped the true Western spirit and have satisfactorily interpreted certain phases of plains life. - The Moving Picture World, March 12, 1910
