It would be impossible in the brief confines to give the full richness of this royal romance dealing with the fates of Atala and Chactas and the great warrior Outalissi who figure in the romantic days of St. Augustine, but the threads of the story have been tightened up and its period made more tense and vivid in this picture play. The heart-broken mother of Atala swears her daughter to virginal vows and the romance that follows the fair but unfortunate orphan is stirring and beautiful beyond the realms of conventional fiction.
