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

A STATEMENT OF FACT PERTAINING TO THOMAS H. INCE'S GREAT DRAMA OF TODAY "MOTHER O' MINE 99 To be released by Associated Producers, Inc. June 5, 1921 Exhibitors everywhere will be delighted to learn that Thomas H. Ince has completed what will undoubtedly prove to be his greatest production when it is released on June fifth, next Those who enjoyed the privilege of exhibiting "Lying Lips," the second Ince release through "A. P.," will probably be surprised when we state that "MOTHER O' MINE'' is, in the opinion of those who have pre-viewed it, an even greater picture in every respect than this big special. The production combines every element that made "Lying Lips" so successful and in addition has a stronger and more gripping theme— mother love! We urgently appeal to all discriminating and progressive exhibitors to make application to view "Mother O' Mine" at their nearest "A. P." exchange just as soon as prints are received by our branches. We want our many exhibitor-friends to share in the huge profits which we predict will result from the exhibition of the Ince super-special. Associated Producers Inc.
