This particular issue belongs to the first volume and the sixth number of the monthly magazine.

The magazine covers a variety of topics, from critiques of film directors and actors to the business practices employed within the industry. It presents an anecdotal narrative on figures like "Director Brennan," illustrating the lengths some will go to capitalize on the aspirations of aspiring actors with dubious offerings. The publication delves into the personal lives of stars, showcasing both their struggles and successes, and offers commentary on the overarching cultural phenomena of the time, including the ongoing popularity of the cinema and the challenges faced by those involved in the art of filmmaking. Overall, "Film Truth" serves as both a reflection on the state of cinema in 1920 and a candid take on public figures and the business dynamics within Hollywood.
