We may expect a continuance of the story
A multiple-reel drama in which there are good situations and well handled. M. Navarre plays a dual role and does splendid work. Opposite him is the Gaumont's famous leading woman, Mme. Renee Carl; she justifies every expectation. The story is of a bold thief, of the gentleman sort, who commits a robbery. He has also committed a murder. After his arrest and conviction, the wife of the murdered man, in love with the thief, bribes the keepers of the latter to bring him to her home, a short distance from the prison. It is the night preceding his execution. The same evening, a famous actor gives a representation of the condemned man in his cell. The impersonator is decoyed to the house of the woman after the murderer has arrived. He is still in his convincing make-up. After the woman has drugged him, the jailers take him back to his cell. As he is being prepared for the execution, a detective discovers that the man still under the influence of the drug is not the murderer. The final curtain is to the effect that "Henceforth it is Juve (the detective) versus Fantomas." So we may expect a continuance of the story at a later time. The picture will interest. - The Moving Picture World, June 28, 1913
