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

The New York Evening Sun said: "It is a drama as absorbing to contemplate as its plot is big — and there was a plot more strikor more complex." TO BERLI THE WHOLE COLOSSAL DRAMA OF THE Wt REAL — authentic — true. All the great events of four years of battle, packed with thrills and sensations. Bleeding Belgium in the hands of the Huns — France rising to meet the brutal invader — England training soldiers to reinforce her "contemptible little army" — then, fighting on all the big fronts. The Kaiser and the Crown Prince — what a German soldier looks like — Germany's plans for a New York Air Raid. All the subsequent big events — then America preparing here, training in France, marching up to the battles at Chateau Thierry and Cantigny. The whole grand, awesome picture. You can't possibly afford not to show it. Yoducticmr ,M 16OO Brodd-vdy We-w^rk Q\ty s*7
