May be [Griffith's] simplest, most affecting work.

Combustible Celluloid
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
Rating: B --
This mawkish Victorian melodrama rises above its faults with a stylishly beautiful film that also brings real tragedy to the screen.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
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: 3.5/4 --
The most elemental and uncluttered of D.W. Griffith's major melodramas.

TV Guide
Rating: 4/4 --
Films like this, naive as they seem today, helped nudge a xenophobic nation toward racial tolerance.

Description by OLDIES.com:
D.W. Griffith's tragic tale of a frail girl named Lucy who befriends a sensitive Chinese immigrant in London's seedy Limehouse District is generally regarded as one of the greatest films of the silent era. Starring Lillian Gish as Lucy, Richard Barthelmess as the Chinese man, and Donald Crisp as Lucy's brutal father, this quiet little film still manages to be shocking and heartbreaking nearly a century after it was first shown.
