The Fallen Idol (Great Northern Preferred). — This addition to the program of Box Office Attractions features, in three reels, is another personal triumph for Betty Nansen as an emotional actress. In these days when wild melodrama is often resorted to in the unfolding of a human interest story, it is favorable criticism of The Fallen Idol to say that what faults it may have as an offering on current picture programs have resulted from an apparent desire on the part of the producer to handle all situations without sensationalism. There is plenty of action but no real thrill.
