Early full length American production
psteier15 May 2000
Helen Gardner plays Margo, the daughter of a Spanish smuggler (Hamalo). A poor local boy (Quentin) loves her but she tells him he must have money before they can marry. A local constable (Lambro) is also interested in her, but she turns him down. When her father sprains his leg, she dresses as a man and brings back some of the smuggled goods hidden in a cemetery. However, Lambro follows her and then promises Quentin the money he needs to marry Margo if he will kill a smuggler, but he shoots Margo returning to the cemetery for the rest of the goods.

Interesting as an early full length movie. The acting is a mix of stage and screen styles. Most of the sets are good, though the main set (the front of Hamalo's house) clearly has a painted backdrop and 'stone' stairs.
