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.

Cropped and blonde for “Lady from Shanghai” at daughter Rebecca’s birthday party Its like This. LOVEUA... “Certainly, I’ll marry again. I love a home and I would hate to think that I would have to spend all my days alone in the future. But I am in no hurry to marry. I have had two husbands and I am not yet thirty. The next time must be the right one.” I talked with Rita in New York, the day before she sailed for Europe where, as a guest of the Army, she was to visit and entertain soldiers. She had not yet recovered from the heartache she knew over the dissolution of her marriage. But she had, nevertheless, taken hold of herself. I found our interview strangely reminiscent of one I did with Rita for Photoplay the first time she left Orson Welles. Then I asked her if she expected to marry Tony Martin. And she was as vehement in her denials as she is now about David Niven. However, her dates with Tony were in the open, at night clubs where they danced as beautifully as any pair I ever saw.
