It cannot be said that the "Flying A" always chooses pleasant themes for its pictures, but it seldom fails to get humanity into them. Some of them are, like this one, bitter life portrayals. They end pleasantly; this one is no exception, and even the hard first part of it has a touch of grandeur. The master of the vineyard, a neighbor, gave work and shelter to the wife and grown daughters of a shiftless drunkard. They had fled to save the girl from the attentions of unwelcome suitors, friends of the father. The raisin ranch, owned by the master, was in a tough neighborhood and these rough suitors caused trouble for the master, but the only one who really suffered was the father, who had awakened and was taking the part of master and the girls. It makes a strong impression and is very commendable. - The Moving Picture World, December 2, 1911
