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

Morey Star Series Release. Its leading role is one of sheer virility that could be fittingly portrayed by but few of America's screen stars, and by none with the masterful Morey touch. This creator on the screen of "Joe Garson" in "Within the Law" and "Paul mini Strong" in "Womanhood, the Glory of the Nation," seems fairly to live the role of Oliver Bennett in the "The King of Diamonds," a rare drama of love, adventure and vengeance. Supporting Mr. Morey is a cast of exceptional merit including Betty Blythe, Jean Paige, George Majeroni and other Vitagraph favorites.
