In directing the making of the picture, Fred Nible achieved the highesUpossible success in the art of the cinema not only by the spectac ular grandeur of the chariot race, the sea battle and the massing of the Roman troops, but the more parti cularly by the intelligent manner in which he transferred to the screen the very soul of the story.

The important players were Ra mon Novarra, Francis Z. Bushman, May McAvoy, Claire McDowell, Kathleen Key, Carmel Myers,, Nigel de Brulier, Mitchell Lewis.
