Summary
David Wark Griffiths [sic] goes from strength to strength. When 'Orphans of the Storm' was first shown in the big cities of the world, the Press pronounced it an epochal triumph. Taken from the story of 'The Two Orphans,' it is a story of the events leading up to and including the French Revolution. Film plot included. Miss Lillian and Miss Dorothy Gish act superbly, whilst Monte Blue gives a wonderful performance.
