When Knights Were Bold

by Frank Miller (early screenwriter), directed by Maurice Elvey

. . . we thought [Kenilworth Castle] might account for the cold in the head which was the cause of Sir Guy’s tribulations [possibly his dream or trip to the past]. . . . The story of the play has been followed closely, and the humour of its situations and much of its dialogue skilfully preserved, while the more spacious setting provides opportunities for many effective scenes which add greatly to its interest.
— from The Bioscope, 10 August 1916

INDEXER NOTES (SPOILERS!)
  • Classification—just a guess that this is a feature film (more than 40 minutes) based on a <a href='http%3A%2F%2Fwww.robertbuchanan.co.uk%2Fassets%2Fimages%2Fwhenknightsfilmwelch1.jpg'>newspaper ad</a> stating that it is a “four-reel London film production.”
  • Credits—It’s almost certain that <a href='Robert_Buchanan'>Robert Buchanan</a> was uncredited; the <a href='https%3A%2F%2Fwww.imdb.com%2Ftitle%2Ftt0007555%2Ffullcredits%2F'>IMDb</a> indicates with no reference that <a href='Harriet_Jay'>Harriet Jay</a> was credited as Charles Marlowe.
