Very much on the credit side, though, are stretches of pure Griffith poetry, marvellous use of light and shadow in cameraman Billy Bitzer's evocation of foggy Limehouse, and a truly unforgettable performance from Gish.
Time Out
Rating: B --
This mawkish Victorian melodrama rises above its faults with a stylishly beautiful film that also brings real tragedy to the screen.

Rating: 4/5 --
One of the screen's greatest symbioses of performance and photography.

Goatdog's Movies
One of D.W. Griffith's most beautiful films.

Chicago Reader
No special feature has dared to produce a mere intimate story about human beings which continues so long as it has something to say and ceases when it has said it.

New York Tribune
Although the picture consumes only 90 minutes, it somehow seems draggy, for the reason that everything other than the scenes with the three principals seems extraneous and tends to clog the progression of the tale.

Variety
Rating: 4/5 --
Definitely a silent drama fighting against the traditional limitations of the form and the strict social mores of the day. One of Lillian Gish's most moving performances.
