An old story done in pictures; it makes a good, interesting offering. In the story, the actor is described as playing in Hamlet. He is found to be too old to play the grave digger and is discharged; but comes back at night, puts on Hamlet's robes and dies on the throne. This makes very appropriate the quotation. "After this is silence." The picture makes the drama "Richelieu," and, even in this, the quotation is not very much out of place; but we think that the story was better as first told. This old actor is played well by Frank Clark and he is ably supported by Bessie Eyton, H.W. Otto, T. Santschi and W. Hutchinson. Colin Campbell is author and producer. - The Moving Picture World, May 17, 1913
