There are very few British soldiers

This is the third in the series of historical pictures the Edison Company is releasing from time to time. It is good, but not so good as the two that have preceded it. The picture of .the battle is what might be called a full-faced picture and it isn't effective. This is due mostly to the fact that there are very few British soldiers and also that there are too many actors among the Americans who seem not deeply interested in the outcome of the event. The love story also might have been acted a little more convincingly. It is hard for a grown actor to play the part of a bashful youth pleasingly. The hero of the incident is played by a good actor, but one watching him, longs to have him straighten up and make love like an officer and a gentleman. - The Moving Picture World, August 26, 1911
