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.

Good loser: With award-winner Jennifer Jones Social success: With the Cottens and George Cukor Surgeon’s wife: Ingrid and her Dr. Lindstrom Bike enthusiast: A daily ride for a girl who loves the outdoors Bits and pieces to make the picture complete Personal history : Motherless at two, fatherless at twelve, Ingrid Bergman grew up with a family of cousins in Stockholm, Sweden — to win first an acting scholarship and then world-wide fame in the motion pictures of Sweden, Germany and (five years ago) America. What fills her closet: Peasant clothes of all types — full-skixted dresses in every rainbow color; and bright embroidered blouses; and dozens of brillianthued buckskin moccasins. These last are flat-soled, handmade and trimmed with gay appliques in soft leathers. There are also camels-hair coats (every shade and hue) and evening gowns (ditto). What she wouldn’t wear on a bet: Severe dresses, high -heeled shoes, jewelry, hats and severely tailored suits — particularly the latter! In the picture “Spellbound” her complete wardrobe was one tailored suit — and her complete attitude toward it was sorrow! The outfit she’s symphonic about: An evening gown with a bouffant white georgette skirt and sleeves, a wine-red bodice — and wine-red velvet appliques tossed hither and yon on the floating skirt. Favorite color: Red. What she can cook the best: Anything Swedish. Swedish desserts, entrees, soups and salads appear like toothsome magic under her hands on the days when she pushes her cook out of the kitchen and goes to work herself. Favorite flowers: Garden flowers — never hot-house blooms — worn COVER GIRL
