Reception



Marion Russell in 'The Billboard' wrote, "Amazingly beautiful photography marks the high lights of this picture, seconded by realistic acting in which character types predominate. Eugenie Besserer gives a stunning performance of a distraught mother. Two charmingly wistful impersonations are contributed by Pauline Starke and Gloria Hope as the youthful heroines. Mr. Macauley is to be congratulated upon a tense, dramatic picture, which grips despite the basic idea is one of hate and vengeance".Russell, Marion. "Seeds of Vengeance." 'The Billboard'. Cincinnati Vol. 32, Iss. 46,  (Nov 13, 1920): 90-91. Via Proquest.
