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

PREFERRED PICTURES, the People's Choice, for everybody. Only 6 PREFERRED PICTURES have been released so far, but they have all made good. £Made good with the critics, made good with the people, made good at the box office. That's because they were made good originally by Ben Schuiberg. Schulberg started in by making 'em good. Now, every day in e. w.,* he's making 'em better and better. You've seen the first six; watch for the remaining two of the First Preferred Eight. And next year's schedule shows that PREFERRED PICTURES will run in 1924 — and run away ahead of the field.
