L. C. MacBean and Fred Paul

Fred Paul was born in Lausanne in 1880 and came very young to England, where he was an actor before turning to directing. He made a speciality of adapting successful novels and plays, with stars of the London stage, brought Wilde and Pinero to the screen in 1916, then made melodramas and a series of short films in the taste of the Grand Guignol. His career barely survived the coming of sound, and he died in 1967. He co-directed this film with L. C. MacBean.
