Critical reception
editThe Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A complicated and episodic blend of sentiment and suspense, which fails in the latter aim through the confusion and number of its miniature dramas. The handling is somewhat crude, the acting variable, and it seems too much of a coincidence that the two reporters should be so extraordinarily fortunate as to find everyone they wish to interview in London."[2]
