The Art Of The Moving Picture

CHAPTER XVII
7/27

John Charles and Katharine Henry played the villain and the honest working girl.

About three hundred secondaries were engaged along with the principals.
"It is melodrama of the most thrilling sort, in spite of the fact that there is a moral concealed in the very title of the play.

But who is worried by a moral in a play which has an exciting hand-to-hand fight between a man and a woman in one of the earliest acts, when the quick march of events ranges from a wedding to a murder and an automobile abduction scene that breaks all former speed-records.

Dr.Anna Howard Shaw, the famous suffrage leader, appears personally in the film.
"'Your Girl and Mine' is a big play with a big mission built on a big scale.
