His Brother's Wife

With its prologue that is somewhat of a hindrance, this Warner's Features picture makes a fair feature offering in three reels. The situation is not very deep or original, but is interesting and has been developed in a lively and entertaining way. The story is of modern life, but is a kind of reflex of such romances as Pelleas and Melisande developed in a more healthy and clean-hearted way. Gene Gauntier plays the young wife of a man (Jack Clark) who has married her out of pique. His younger brother (Malcolm Sinclair) is the friend of the wife whom her husband soon neglects. Blinded by anger he accuses his younger brother while he himself is the only one who has done wrong, but the close sees everybody happy. The acting of all three of the cast will justly be popular. The photography and staging are good. Gene Gauntier is the author and Jack Clark the director of it. - The Moving Picture World, July 25, 1914
