Description:
Began publishing in 1915; mid-level fan magazine on par with Movie Classic and Screenland. Cost a twenty five cents an issue up until pricing pressure from New Movie (c. 1932) incited an across-the-board price decrease to 10 cents. Merged with Charm in 1941, which would later become Glamour magazine (1959). -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013.

Palmer Parsons ^fl Supervised by C. GARDNER SULLIVAN ' JM A WILLIAM K. HOWARD PRODUCTION MM Produced by DeMille Pictures Corporation The amazing revelation of a woman's soul / STARK REALISTIC BREATHTAKING "Where you go 1 shall go" NEVER has such a tremendous conflict, of human and elemental emotions been depicted on the screen — the stark drama of a beautiful woman and three men — one who loved her, one who wanted her and one who hated her — played out in graphic realism on the lonely plains. GEORGE BANCROFT Monroe Lathrop, Dramatic Critic of the Los Angeles Evening Express says: — "a masterpiece — one of the ten best pictures 1 ever saw, and I find it hard to recall one which so gripped me in every foot of its progress. Such a co-ordination of brilliant direction and forceful acting is rare indeed, with thought, imagination and fidelity to truth in every scene."
