Fred Schader Variety After reading the story and seeing the picture it seems that the James Oliver Curwood tales make better reading than they do screen material. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Wid Gunning The Film Daily In the midst of wild animals of various sorts in pleasant scenes of the wooded territory of the south-west portion of Canada, Nell Shipman makes a charming heroine. Jul 27, 2020 Full Review Tom Hamlin Motion Picture News It is a unique novelty and while presenting a dramatic story realistically it also possesses great value scenically and is naturally entertaining because of the great array of animals used. Jul 27, 2020 Full Review Oregonian Staff Oregonian [Shipman] has demonstrated in this opportunity that she has not only the personal charm but the brains to warrant making her the center of a big picture. Jun 23, 2020 Full Review Harriette Underhill New York Tribune The picture gives Miss Shipman emotional opportunities and her work is impressive. Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews The wilderness scenes had a sparkle to them that gave additional life to the mundane story.
