Transcription

Plot

During the Gold Rush, miner George Willis loses his unfaithful wife in a rock fall on Mount Sunraise and takes to the bush.

He rescues a girl, Hope Stuart, from a flood and nurses her back to health in his hut. When he brings her back to her father he discovers that an old enemy, Arthur Greerson, has accused him of murder.

Greerson is injured in a mining accident and after George rescues him, Greerson admits he has lied. George returns to his life as a recluse in the mountains, followed by Hope.

Cast

Production

The film was shot on location in June 1925 at the Avon Dam near Bargo with interiors at the studios of Australasian Films in Bondi.[10][11][12] There was also location work at Burraragong Valley.[13]

F. Stuart Whyte, who had been imported by Australasian Films to direct Painted Daughters, began directing the movie.[14] However he left Australia during shooting for unknown reasons. He was replaced by Longford, who had recently contracted to Australasian Films.[15][16] (Longford would direct the third Australasian Films movie, The Pioneers.[17][18])

Robert Travers, the male lead, almost drowned during filming.[19]

Filming was completed by October 1925.[20][21]

Reception

According to the Sunday Mail "The cast has been well chosen, and as in the case of Peter Vernon's Silence, the utmost care and skill are shown in the sequences, the cinematography, and the action."[22]

The Bulletin called it "a very fair Australian picture."[23]
