Description:
The leading Hollywood fan magazine of the 1920s and 1930s. Photoplay offered readers portraits of their favorite movie stars and stories about their personal lives. The magazine played an important promotional function for the Hollywood industry, but its editors and reviewers could also be highly critical of Hollywood. Beginning in 1921, Photoplay bestowed its annual 'Medal of Honor' for the film readers voted as the best of the year. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011.

Were I your peer. I should ask your pleasure as to time and weapons." Buzzi's departure was, for the first time in his career, flight rather than retreat. "Count Gasparro," said Beatriz. when all had gone. "I lied to you last night. In the Municipal prison lies a young American— yes, Noel Brent — charged with a murder, the time of which has been fixed by physicians. I want you to procure his release, because it was absolutely impossible for him to have committed that murder. At that time, and for hours, he had been — in my apartment. He is guiltless "You infamous woman I" cried Gasparro. "I shall do nothing! He may lie there till he rots!" "Then there is nothing left for me to do. I suppose." murmured Beatriz. demurely, "but to sacrifice myself before the chief of police and the judges — and the gentlemen of the daily journals?" "You cannot!" whispered Gasparro. savagely. "You are my fiancee — my name — -the escutcheon of my house — " "Then you must procure his release!" Beatriz's voice was fire, her tone little less than a cry. Gasparro sighed and bowed his head. "You — woman, you must marry this fellow !" he snarled. "My honor demands it!" "That." answered Beatriz. with sparkling eves, "is just what I intend to do!"
