Practical effects are minimal, but the performances have this rawness that brings the inmate's journey to life. It’s this blend of comedy and introspection that gives it an unusual charm. Definitely a bit of a gem for those interested in early cinema’s take on redemption and personal transformation.
'Never Again' has a somewhat elusive presence in collector circles, with few known prints remaining, which adds to its charm.
