“Although the film lacks a strong story line, the actors do well in their roles. Most of the reading of the story comes from u0026quot;between the linesu0026quot; and the actors abilities to present the story to us. I think the editor did a good job of putting together a reasonable film even though he was missing a reel that got lost in transit. Admittedly if he had had all four reels, the final cut would have been improved. Still I enjoyed watching this film even though I had to fill in some blank spots with my own thoughts as to how some things tied together. A little popcorn, some spare time, and lets watch u0026#39;A Breed Apartu0026#39;. The scenery is fine.”
