GLADYS BROCKWELL
DIRECTION WILLIAM FOX
Miss Glayds (sic) Brockwell has a surprise in store for her friends in
this rapid-fire crook picture. She plays a dual role, something not new
to her of course, but here her friends will see her entirely changed in
one characterization. She does this simply by "making up" her nose. The
play itself is a thrilling story of a poor girl and a rich girl both
fooled by a crook. Together they finally bring him to a just end.
