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

MOTION PICTURE NEWS: "Nazimova has come into her own again with this modern version of Dumas' tragedy of passion, 'Camille,' this modem adaptation of the play which has taxed the art of Bernhardt, Duse, et al." MORNING TELEGRAPH: "Nazimova's interpretation is a 1921 embodiment of the faults and virtues of Manon Lescaut, Marion Delorme and Nana, up to date even to the bobbed hair."
