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

Q Here is a smashing, romantic melodrama with the biggest box-office punch that we have seen in any picture in the past twelve months. It has the largest array of star names, with known and proved drawing power of any picture released in months. It has direction at its best. Think of having lithographs in front of your theatre showing in portrait and character this amazing line-up, backed up by a proved picture that could not possibly go wrong anywhere under any conditions: Helene Chadwick, Richard Dix, Alan Hale, Noah Beery, J. Farrell McDonald, George Cooper, Tom Wilson, Dick Sutherland, Hardee Kirkland, Lou King,Walter Long, Edwin Stevens, Frank Campeau, Lionel Belmore, Jean Hersholt, William Dyer, Jack Curtis, James A. Marcus. Howard Hawks presents tiiJUxxt Chodjjjudk 6 Gixchand 49i/x in UICKSANDS Directed by Jack ConxVay Prints of this production are now being rushed to all of our Exchanges for screening and immediate pre-release engagements. Helene Chadwick and Richard Dix are today the greatest team of young stars of the screen. This is a great love story, a great melodrama and a great adventure story, backed with thrills and reinforced by the presence of two thousand U. S. cavalrymen.
