The man Giovanni is very well drawn and his character interests and obtains sympathy. His employer, Gardoni, who is a widower with a charming daughter, has married again, a young and lovely woman being his choice. She falls passionately in love with Giovanni and finding him indifferent to her subtler advances finally steps over the bounds of propriety heretofore observed and sends him a note, asking him to come and see her in her sitting-room during her husband's absence from the city on business. Giovanni, though he has pretended not to have seen the marks of her favor, heretofore has avoided temptation by keeping out of her company as best he could.

This two-reel subject was made in the Italian studios of the company and is a fine production. Especially notable is the acting, there being an unusually good cast and well balanced. The settings are excellent. The work of the chief of detectives stands out. He makes much of his part. In the story he not only in ingenious fashion uncovers the guilty and turns him over to justice, but also protects the honor of the woman of the house, who through no fault of her own failed in her designs on the fiancé of her step-daughter. There is a happy ending. - The Moving Picture World, February 21, 1914
