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.

Beginning in 1921, Photoplay bestowed its annual 'Medal of Honor' for the film readers voted as the best of the year. -- Eric Hoyt, 2011.

And when she was asked by Norman Foster to re-do ' a scene, she paused dramatically, then cracked, “Shall I do it the way you want me to do it, or the way Burt Lancaster is directing?” Now, says Burt, washing Miss ■ Ginger Rogers changed her mind about Lew Ayres!
