In response, the Czar orders Count Nicho, the eldest of the officers, to marry Vera, and also mandates that each of them turn over all of their wealth and fortunes to her.
"[5] A critic of the Rapid City Journal described the film as a "timely photodrama... in these days of topsy-turvy adjustment, political and social.
