" Esmeralda is a new kind of Mary Pickford picture. The story begins on the farm and swings around to the big city. From the simple and wholesome country girl "Esmeralda" becomes a veteran society leader. One of the big features of "Esmeralda" is the interrupted wedding ceremony in which Little Mary refuses to marry the count. It is a real Pickford scene and worth as much as many entire pictures."
