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.

Imagine them coming slowly down the aisle, Connie’s bridesmaids in their pink and red dresses, their great bouquets of red and pink roses, stephanotis, baby’s breath and ivy. . . . Imagine the bride, beautiful little Connie in her long, beaded, ivory gown, with its fingertip veil, the crown of stephanotis, no hair showing, just the clean, scrubbed, girlish face, eyes sparkling, moving slowly for once in her busy life ... on her father’s arm down the center aisle, light spilling in the high windows of St. Francis de Sales Church, touching the hundreds of friends who have come to watch the nuptial high mass uniting her forever with handsome — “He may not be the best-looking guy in the world but he seems so to me” — James Stacy. All eyes are on Connie. What is she thinking, Connie, the lovely, radiant bride? Isn’t this a miracle! I never in the world thought I’d ever find someone just right for me.
