A sumptuous piece of work
Scenes from the life of the queen of Philip V of Spain, she who introduced the inquisition, favored Columbus, and thereby assisted, unwittingly, in the discovery of a new world, and cruelly persecuted the Jews. The work is done with a sumptuousness and a fidelity to historical narrative which makes it interesting, even though the personality of the queen is revolting in many particulars. The benefit of pictures of this class is that they arouse interest in historical persons and thereby lead to a wider diffusion of historical research. The stage setting for this film was a sumptuous piece of work, liberally conceived and adequately worked out. To this can be added good work on the part of the operator, and the combination produced a very satisfactory picture. - The Moving Picture World, May 7, 1910
