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

'-.<, t w *~ fx why Jid Gi*auman'*r audiencex were I The only great cast is that cast that tells a story in a great way. "The White Rose" Hammers out its appeal in tones that never jar because the players WERE the characters; not just acting the characters. Not in recent years has any player won such lavish praise as MAE MARSH, who is greater in this picture than in "The Birth of a Nation" or "Intolerance." Ivor Novello was specially selected from all young men of stage and screen for this role. He is great. Carol Dempster, a different type, always getting better and better, is better than ever in this film. Neil Hamilton, one of those real "finds" D. W. Griffith so often makes, is on his way to greatness. Through it all moves that sensitive magic of quick humanity that only Griffith, the real master of the films, gives always to his work. D. W.
