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

Here is a hero for men and for women; here is a picture of the great sweep and power, and of the gentleness and god-like beauty characterizing the fine works of literature and of the stage and the screen. Shipwrecked and left alone with books the power of his mind found itself. He went back to the civilization that had branded him, and men and women bowed before his power. With his soul aslumber he struck with mighty fists, he defeated champions, he bullied bullies, he cracked hard heads, and he scorned the law. With his soul aroused voice, he defeated the lived in justice, he loved derness, he was the man women. Bom the novel by Frederic £ Iskam Directed by Robert Thornby
