Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details a series of speeches given by James Patterson Chalmers at the 1921 Convention of Motion Picture Exhibitors. The author lays out the principles that the organization should adopt in order to continue to grow and succeed, including independence of thought and action, along with co-operation with other branches of the industry. He emphasizes aligning with other exhibitors, producers, and distributors, acknowledging that their futures depend on finding common ground. The author, one of the founders of the industry, discusses the development of moving pictures, and provides a historical context on the formation of the Motion Picture Exhibitors organization and their role within the industry. Avoiding technical jargon or complex financial discussions, the author instead focuses on the human element of the business and emphasizes ethical behavior, fair play, and open and honest dealings. He argues that this approach encourages progress, growth, and innovation in all aspects of the industry and is key to the longevity and success of those involved.
