Nilsson, Robert Cain, Derek Glynne, and Edward Elkas. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. Also note that Israel Zangwill, who wrote the source play, is a fascinating person in Jewish history. He was one of the main Jewish leaders of the Zionist movement at the turn of the twentieth century, along with Theodor Herzl, wanting the Jewish people to have a homeland in Palestine. But in 1916, he felt that this was based on the deception, because Palestine was home to 600,000 Arabs, and he said giving the Jewish people Palestine would displace those Arabs of their homeland, so he completely renounced his earlier support of Zionism!
