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

It's so utterly different— so very much and very excellently Tom Moore's." Daily News. " 'Hold Your Horses' is riotously funny as shown on the screen. In the footage there are scores of lively incidents, some hilariously funny subtitles and plenty of action." Evening Journal. Tom Mo "Tom Moore is immensely funny, first as a swagger Irish 'White Wing,' later as the ward politician and lastly as the city boss who marries the wealthy woman whose buggy once ran him down when he was on duty." Evening Telegram. "However, we can say without any hesitancy that it is the best picture we ever saw Tom Moore do and one of the best pictures we ever saw any one do. The titles are so well done that you feel like applauding them or patting their author on the back." N.
