Description:
Relatively short-lived magazine that nonetheless played a crucial role in the gossip industry. Launched in 1929, it cost only ten cents, when the majority of high-end magazines sold for a quarter. It was also primarily sold through Woolworth’s five and dime stores; the combination of cost and accessibility led to its dominance, by 1933, over all other magazines (circulation: 650,000). As a result, the other magazines decreased their price to match New Movie’s. New Movie had less content and poorer quality drawings and illustrations, but the content similar in tone and quality to that of the high end magazines. Ceased publication in 1935. -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013. Secondary sources consulted: Inside the Hollywood Fan Magazine by Anthony Slide and MovieMags.com.

DAY by DAY in a kaleidoscope of humor, gossip and romance trunk for the last ten years. It's followed ine across the United States and back, through one-night stands and all the rest of it. Well . . . now that I have my own home, it might as well go to its well-earned reward. But I guess it isn't everyone who could stand calmly by and watch his old home go up in smoke!" CAROLE LOMBARD has been doing such a thorough job of learning the rhumba that a chiropodist had to be called in to put ice bags and stuff on her throbbing, steaming tootsies, at the end of a long weary day! bjaH, Constance Bennett and Kerf "*"£.%&£ broadcasting., Be,° . wi|| b,T\.rP-n.but wHh' Carole Kib-tr and George Raft. I S Douglass Montgomery the lazy one! Don't let on I told you, but, out at his place the other night, Doug threw a flock of ingredients into a snappy cocktail shaker, hooked it onto a gadget, and . . . Br-rr-rrr-rrr-r! . . . the shaker went into its dance, untouched by human hands! TTERE 'tis, ladies! Omar Kiam, who designs gowns for Goldwyn's Anna 1 1 Sten, says that skirts are decidedly not going up. The preferred length, says Mister Kiam, just touches the calf. Furthermore, really smart women never wear long skirts for anything but evening wear. And if you happen to be one of those who let them dangle between ankle and calf . . . tch, tch . . . don't ever do that! It's most uncomely, says Mr. Kiam. PLAYING a motorcycle cop, in "White Lies," Victor Jory took advantage of the fact and sneaked up on Sheila Manners as she drove into Hollywood from San Fernando Valley. "Pull over to the curb . . . !" he yelled. And, Sheila, scared to death, pulled over. "Going sixty, eh?" he said scathingly. "Fine citizen you are . . . breaking laws . . . endangering the lives of innocent young children ... !"
