It lacks dramatic building up and has no definite climax
deickemeyer15 January 2017
A story of Revolutionary France in which Mary Navarro plays the lead, as Babette, a girl of the people. She takes pity on two aristocratic lovers and helps them to escape from rough revolutionary pursuers. Babette is cornered by these pursuers and commits suicide. It is played in the well-known costume of the period and set in pretty backgrounds not wholly in keeping with the story. Electric lights on gate posts are certainly out of keeping. The plot is perfectly clear; but is slight and incidental with a beginning, middle and end only by courtesy, so to speak; it lacks dramatic building up and has no definite climax. The players are skillful and their work is pleasant to watch. It gives fair entertainment. - The Moving Picture World, August 24, 1912
