In the city this will all be understood
deickemeyer10 November 2015
A graphic story of how a young married man was cured of a sporting life. It is the familiar story of going to the city to collect winnings, a dashing company at supper and the sudden appearance of the wife. It is a dramatic scene when she turns away and he leaves the room convinced that he has lost her forever. The novelty in the situation develops when the company of sports in the Turkish bath make up a purse to send to the baby and open negotiations with the wife to allow the man to return. In the city this will all be understood and will prove an interesting film, but for country districts remote from cities and their environment it is doubtful whether this would be altogether intelligible. No fault is to be found with the story, or the acting; it is a question of locality and worldly knowledge only. - The Moving Picture World, February 11, 1911
