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

Features which are finished or are in work, but to which release dates have not been assigned, are listed in "Coming Attractions." Running times are those supplied by the distributor. Where they vary in different cities or towns, the change is probably due to state or local censorship deletions. nth Cain and Artens Children tf tt* Me* Day China Eiprou Demon of the Stcpp** Fragment of an Empire Law of Siberian Taiga Man from the Restaurant Old and New •■-•• Pamir.
