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.

the whole delightful story of the hoax he9s pulling on Hollywood ! Peter Falk let out a tuneful yawn which sounded exactly like the yell Tarzan used to give before he swung to the next tree. But Peter, who had arrived on the dot of one for our 12:30 luncheon date, didn’t swing. Instead, he rubbed his eyes and slid one elbow clear across the table so he could cradle his weary head on it. The head and the elbow rested barely one inch from my rare roast beef. The actor, who is unlike any other actor, lost no time dit Jting the fact that he’s supposed to be the “new” John Garfield. “Listen,” he said, rousing himself only slightly, “this comparison to Garfield don’t make me float with flattery. It don’t make me mad, either. I just don’t care one way or the other. Anybody who plays a guy from the wrong side of the tracks, yet is basically honest — and is liked by men and attractive to women — fits the Garfield pattern. So what? Personally, I’d rather be me than him. ( Continued on page 81) “ Sure I’m a good husband,” says Peter. “1 forget Alyce’s birthday, our anniversary, our phone number— and 1 won’t help her garden — but I’m a very good husband!”
