READ WHAT T H CRITICS SAY:
INTENSELY INTERESTING DRAMA OF SOCIETY
" A thoroughly convincing and well-acted melodrama. The characters are well drawn, and the work of the entire company hrings out various situations in the best light. The story is both interesting and amusing and has good lighting and artistic settings.
" An intensely interesting play of the ' society ' type. The centre of interest is fastened upon three characters and it is all the more praiseworthy that the situations and acting create such good entertainment.
" John Bowers, in the role of Jim Russell, is well fitted for the part. He acts with restraint and is very effective as the young, struggling engineer. Marguerite de la Motte has an equally important part as Sheila Dome, an authoress and playwright who finds a husband rather a nuisance when she goes after a career. Milton Sills plays the role of the producer of plays, Rudolph Martin, with his usual reserve and conviction." — Exhibitors Herald.
WILL BRING GOLD TO THE BOX OFFICE
" Excellent entertainment is offered by this production which is in every way up to the high standard of previous Thomas H. Ince pictures. A clear, well constructed plot, photography of the best grade, intelligent acting by a talented cast and skil'ed direction are the qualities which register ' What a Wife Learned ' as a feature worthy the attention of all exhibitors and likely to bring golden box office returns. The love interest gathers and develops without once striking a jarring note. The narrative gets into its stride quickly, there are no dull moments nor slackening of speed from start to finish. The big floot scene will surely thrill all beholders and a most satisfactory climax is achieved." — Exhibitors Trade Review.
