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

They've Got To Be GOOD To Be Booked r New York's Rialto Theatre Directed by ROBERT EDDY NO better proof of the quality of a comedy is needed than its ability to satisfy the most discriminating picture audience in the world — the patrons of the Rialto Theatre, New York. Proof that Plum Center Comedies are doing exactly that is found in the fact that Dr. Reisenfeld has just booked another Plum Center for the Rialto— "Pop Tuttle, Detekatif." It's a known fact that Every flum Center Makes Profit "Pie" and the exhibitor who gives his patrons Plum Centers is feeding them the finest film dessert on the market. The wise showman spends most of his time choosing features. He signs up for short stuff which he knows is consistently good. That's why so many exhibitors have placed their faith in Plum Center Comedies. It's YOUR turn NOW!
