The article focuses on the motion picture "The Enchanted Cottage," starring Richard Barthelmess and May McAvoy. "The Enchanted Cottage" is the famous old Pinero valentine, brought up to date and from England to New England about a homely spinster and a disfigured veteran who, because they are in love, look beautiful to each other until people who are not involved in their illusion rudely shatter. The author was so transfigured by the film that for some weeks afterward, behind locked doors, the author alternated his imitations of Barthelmess's work.
