Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? Mr. Goethe and Mr. Gounod have given the world an undisputed classic in the story of Faust. That is not for the Biograph comedy players to deny. Yet their version is a little more optimistic, at least. Faust, as all good people should know, thwarts the Devil and marries Margherita.
