Circus life furnishes the scenes and backgrounds for most of this picture. The circus's Punchinello has a serious falling out with Mimi (Miss Vivian Prescott), the circus's Columbine. They separate and meet again under dramatic circumstances in the midst of an act in a London theatre. It is a big picture full of human beauty and dignity with the most dramatic contrasts, such as the clown's presence in his queer costume in what he fears is the death chamber of the woman he loves. The acting is fine, the story is straightforward and effective, the photograph is beautiful. A very commendable picture. - The Moving Picture World, June 1, 1912
