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.

Monty’s are in each other’s arms, lost in their first kiss BTOT for a long time has the screen shown love || scenes like these. When “A Place in the Sun” was shown to the press — as pictures are before release — the scenes between Monty Clift and Liz Taylor became the talk of Hollywood. Mood music, played off-stage, inspired these two stars to give what many rate their greatest performances. To bring readers a preview of these much discussed love scenes, Photoplay’s editors had the picture run off in the Paramount projection room and chose these “frames” which were cut from the film itself. 48 See page 27 for review of " A Place in the Sun ”
