Here is a little talk about
Photoplay for October
It will be with you the first day of September
PHOTOPLAY is a thirty-day newspaper. It is more and more a volume of last-moment information and exclusive illustration, and so it becomes increasingly difficult to herald its contents with anything like dependability.
NEWS is Photoplay's big tin god. You don't look for dry theory and dusty history in these pages. You look here to find out what's going on — what the live ones are doing, saying, planning — to see which way this leaping art is going to leap next. That's why, time after time, announced features have been sidetracked to let limited trains of big news go thundering by.
In October Photoplay Elizabeth Brock McGaffey will offer you an irresistible humoresque, "The Autobiography of a Scenario," decorations by Gale; Harry Chandlee, author of "The Blessed Miracle," "The Struggle," etc., etc., will begin a short series of articles on the creation of photoplay plot — an inestimable help to every man or woman who has looked hopefully toward the Ince-Photoplay scenario contest as a gate of creative expression; the greatest evil of the voiceless stage — "picture racing" — will be reviewed, correctively and constructively, by all the big manufacturers; you will see "Their Kisses," a photographic interlude of your favorites at their osculations —
We stop. We hadn't commenced to nominate Photoplay's interesting features, now in preparation. But we can't forecast what's going to happen in a news way, and of this you may be sure: October Photoplay, from cover to cover, will be crowded with the tersest, snappiest news; the crispest comment; the prettiest women; the most interesting happenings; the most pungent wit and humor of the hour.
Photoplay is the French mirror of the motion picture business.
D. W. Griffith's
new play is about
to be released
In another month or two, at most, the whole theatregoing world will be clamoring for facts about this remarkable man. There is only one Griffith story. Photoplay has it.
"The Glory Road"
is the first great novel of the screen. Are you reading it? This installment is a whirlwind. The next — even in the midst of its thrilling action and tingling romance — opens a door through which one looks upon the future of active photography with the prophetic eyes of genius.
"The Shadow Sta&e"
is the only general and authoritative department of photoplay criticism yet inaugurated. Find the pulse of the silent drama in these pages.
Another tremendous short story
by the author of " Shell
43!" (in this issue) will
be published in
OCTOBER PHOTOPLAY
