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.

Incidentally, all those lights would give you a terrific headache, to say nothing of painting you a ghastly green, unless you were made up to suit the camera Over in New Jersey, George Arliss registered emotion under a cloudless sky. But the white screens and the mirrors helped old Sol out. The camera needs not only sunshine, but sunshine softened or intensified by various mechanical devices.
