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.

He is tall, dark, moody, with bushy black hair and large, dark-brown inquiring eyes. And he was extraordinarily interested in my visit to the village of Pont Saint Esprit for Photoplay. "Why do you want to see the Bouviers?" he asked — quite directly. "To find out," I said, "if Jacqueline has ever visited them — -or if not, would they like her to visit them."
