It con tains an onthralllngly interesting story with a gripping and humanitar ian theme. Oulda Bergere, the author, has em phasized in an entertaining manner, without "preaching" or "propagan da." the theory that a great number of the crime which are committed today are based on vengeance ag ainst the harshness of 'society and that many criminals if given the proper opportunity may be reclaimed. There is a very strong underlying moral In this photoplay which will make an Inatant appeal to all philan thropic societies, to reformers, pris oners' aid societies, and similar or ganizations, in addition to proving of great general Interest to the public at large. Everybody is interested In criminal reclamation there are skel etons In the closet of a great many families, and thi photoplay will make a very profound appeal to all classes. Miss Fannie Ward aserts that In "The Cry of the Weak," she has done the best acting of her entire career. She considers "The Cry of the Weak" ns her screen masterpiece better than "The Cheat" better than "Common Clay" better than "The Yellow Ticket." When one consid ers the tremendous success of these three big productions, the manner in which they were acclaimed by press and public, the Intensity of Fannie Ward's emotional acting In all three I of them, then her pronouncement thnt "The Cry of the Weak" Is her screen masterpiece should surely Indicate that this is going to prove a box of fice attraction par excellence.
