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.

For your stars of tomorrow are well on their respective ways today. Mitzi Gaynor, your number one choice in the “Choose Your Star” Contest and Twentieth Century-Fox’s new “zing” girl, an irrepressible blonde with laughing, slanting blue eyes and dancing feet, is climbing all the faster through strong roles which were planned for Betty Grable — when Betty went on suspension. Mitzi is going to need every bit of bounce and every stray vitamin for the future the studio now plans for her. Following her starring role in “Golden Girl” with Dale Robertson, she gets the role of Eva Tanguay, the “I Don’t Care” girl, one of the studio’s biggest budget musicals of the year.
