  • Hints to Foreigners Who Produce Cinema Film for the English Market. An English nobleman as a rule does not act in the above manner during a misunderstanding with a lady who has engaged his affections.

When the notice preceding the picture definitely states that the action takes place in Piccadilly the above doesn't look right somehow.
