Summary
Tol'able David' is amongst the few superb productions. It has discarded all the hackneyed tricks of camera and all the warily familiar situations. There is a world of tenderness and human feeling in the story. More pictures like 'Tol'able David' will be welcome in Hongkong, at least by the discerning few.
