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.

Now do you understand me?” “Yes, Cary. Fine, Cary,” said Curtiz. “But I’ll leave the script.” So he left the script behind him and quietly waited. This was before the trade paper reviews of “Night and Day” appeared. There were so many raves, that the day they came out, Mike Curtiz sent Cary a long telegram of appreciation. Thereupon Mr. Grant sat himself down and read the script and he’s going to make the picture. With Curtiz; also with the full expectation they’ll row all the way.
