Starts as a melodrama with a son who murders his mistress and a father who magnanimously accepts the blame in the hope that he will be acquitted, but the strong final act has a few nice twists and turns in store, so that this fairly early talkie remains quite enjoyable despite its age. Funny supporting roles by Herbert Mundin as a precise taxi driver and Billy Bevan as the title character; although this is otherwise a fairly serious film, the humor and the pace seem to point to the further career of co-director Marcel Varnel, who a few years later would direct the most successful comedies of Will Hay, George Formby and the Crazy Gang in England.
