REVIEW:

PAULINE FREDERICK, noted for her screen characterizations of fascinating and alluring women, as well as for her realistic portrayals of sweet innocent girlhood, adds another personal achievement to her remarkable photoplay repertoire in the Famous Player Film Company's picturization of Israel Zangwill's powerful drama, "The Moment Before" on the Paramount Program. With bold strokes of color and action, and the tender touch of sympathy, the author has in this dramatic accomplishment succeeded in completely baring the longings of impulses of a strongly assertive woman which culminate in one great overwhelming moment. These elements of the original drama have been faithfully and vividly preserved, and indeed enhanced, in this unique screen offering.


with Pauline Frederick and Thomas Holding. Directed by Robert Vignola. Famous Players/Paramount.
