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

It's replete with romance and drama that give it an appeal to the older minds as well as to the entire boy and girl world. " An exhibitor ought to have the easiest time of his life filling his theatre with this feature — there are so many angles to work from. This is a serial that should be advertised in a generous way.

" Art Acord was selected to head the cast and he demonstrates his ability to play a part that requires an abundance of nerve, physical power and love of adventure. It's a he-man part and Acord puts it over in great shape. " The direction demonstrates Edward Laemmle's remarkable talent in this field." II Uni'vQrsal's Ced-blooded American Wi'storq Sena!
