Description:
Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World, the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

MACK SENNETT Sets a New Milestone for Pathe's Progam of Super-shorts.. MACK SENNETT The Master of Comedy Producers The greatest laugh manufacturing plant in the norld. the Capital of Comedy, recently completed at Studio City, Cah, for Mack Sennett. OF course it would be a Pathe Producer who would step away from the old regime and built the finest studio in the world for the making of short comedies. Mack Sennett, creator of the Bathing Girls, the Keystone Kops, and the discoverer ol more stars than any other producer, has set a new milestone in short subject production. Every facility under the sun for brightening the lives of film patrons has been incorporated in the new plant, a studio that will be a model for those who take their cues from the Monarch of Merriment. An army of fun makers is now at work at the Sennett headquarters and there the greatest array of comedies ever made will be turned out for Pathe's 1928-1929 program. Sennett always sets the pace. If you don't play the Sennett brand, you won't be playing what your public demands.
