'[T]he truth, the pathos, and the humor of C. J. Dennis' great poems "The Moods of Ginger Mick" and "Doreen" are presented just as the author imagined it. The story of "Ginger Mick" is told in six reels, and follows the fortunes of "Ginger Mick" through his everyday life, his career as a soldier, and his final glorious ending on Gallipoli. The "Bloke" and "Doreen" also figure largely in the picture'.
