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

A select and brilliant list of stars and directors with a money record at the boxoffice — Frank Keenan, Baby Marie Osborne, Florence Reed, Irene Castle among the stars, and George Fitzmaurice and Henry King among the directors. The list of titles embraces some of the most scintillating successes: “At Bay” and “Via Wireless,” the great stage plays; books by Ellery Clark and Carolyn Wells; and scenarios by Ouida Bergere.
