A Surgeon&apos;s Heroism

Its chief interest lies in the quality of the surgeon&apos;s heroic act

This picture is meritorious on more than one count; but its chief interest lies in the quality of the surgeon&apos;s heroic act; it was very courageous and self-forgetful. In a hospital, he was operating on an injured man whom he supposed to be his successful rival for the love of a young lady. A fire broke out. His assistant became panic stricken and wanted to flee. The doctor quickly locked the door, threw the key out of the window and coolly proceeded with his operation until the firemen arrived and carried out the patient. The producer has handled this scene very well and has brought the quality of the action out with strength and clearness. The whole picture, all its separate scenes, are well put on and photographed. Some of them are very interesting. Arthur Johnson plays the part of the surgeon. It is a good picture; but, if it is used as the chief attraction of the bill, it might be wise to have fairly substantial pictures to go with it. The audience liked it. Its effect is what may be expected from any well-told, pleasing, encouraging story. - The Moving Picture World, January 20, 1912
