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.

A Shining Star — Lenore Ulrich 53 geles. Well educated, and having a thorough grasp of conditions in the unsettled republic, their services were of exceptional value. Miss Ulrich's new Mexican photo play, ''The Heart of Paula," afforded her another opportunity to score on the screen even to a greater extent than she did in "Kilmeny." The Mexican tale is replete with interest-compelling situations, and works up to a dramatic climax such as Miss Ulrich presented in "The Bird of Paradise.'' A bright future is predicted for this girl star — who has still to reach her twenties — in the silent drama, for she has already won the approval of the photo-play public. It is expected that Mr. Morosco will make even a greater film star of her than he did a theatrical figure. There seems to be no reason why this should not be so, as Lenore Ulrich has proven herself worthy of becoming one of the most prominent screen favorites of the future, and her work has already attracted attention. SEE THE REFLECTION ON THE CAR? Miss Marjorie Daw, protegee of Geraldine Farrar, and Miss Farrar's pet goat. We were going to say they were ready to take a little spin in the auto, but the reflection of the camera man, director, and other players on the side of the car seems to indicate that they were merely posing. This shows one of the difficulties that producers have to contend with.
