This 17 minute film was adapted from Victor Hugo's 'LeRoi s'amuse' and Verdi's opera, 'Rigoletto'. Obviously Griffith had 'Les Miserables' and 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' in mind when he was adapting this film, but it just goes to show that the reason why he got better as a director was because he was adapting existing pieces of work onto the screen.
