Description:
This leading industry publication, published out of New York, was founded in 1915 by Wid Gunning (who called his publication Wid's Daily until 1922). The Film Daily documented the rise of the Hollywood studios, the transition to sound, and the evolution of the American film industry (the paper finally shuttered in 1970). The Film Daily included feature reviews, news stories, and advertisements, but its extensive coverage of short films in the 1920s and 30s distinguished it from other trade papers of the period. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011/2013

RED if you want the lowdown on the industry's cycle-starters! ' 'Warners, who made a reputation and boxoffices busy places with fast, action melodramas based on newspaper headlines, are back in the field they know so well with "G-Men.1' First of the eight, ten, or maybe it's twelve of the pictures now in work on the coast and dealing with the activities of Department of Justice men, this First National attraction has tempo, pace and excitement and enough of all three to turn it into first-class audience stuff. About the others along similar lines which are to come, there may be some doubt. Not here, however. Priority is important in cycles and near cycles. The Warners know it, are making plans to rush the film out and yesterday set the first two dates: the Roger Sherman, New Haven, and the Warfield, San Francisco, on the 26th. Other keys and semi-key runs immediately thereafter. Smart handling". . . "Red" Kann in M. P. Daily . ■■■■ ■ ■ ■ ■■■ ■ .
