Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1922)

Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section Hazard, Ky. Dear Editor: I read your "Letters from Readers" in the May Photoplay and I must say that I fully agree with Joan Claybourne that the American is the ideal lover and husband. Whenever I read or hear of an American girl marrying a foreigner it makes my blood boil, for in my estimation no foreigner is as good as our American men and boys, even though they may have half a dozen titles. I was never so disappointed in all my life as when Constance Talmadge married the Greek, John Pialago. I also agree with Miss Claybourne that Conrad Nagel is one of our best actors and I would like to see more of him and also Harrison Ford. As far as I am concerned Rodolph Valentino doesn't exist and I would rather keep my money in my purse than spend it to see a movie he was acting in. Very truly yours, Marie Price. The Last Call for New Faces (Concluded from page 37) ladies who have entered their pictures in the New Faces Contest have revealed themselves as eager to work, and work hard, for success. The letters they have written the New Faces Editor have been reassuring. They do not expect a royal road to fame and fortune. They know that screen success means work; and then more work. The day of the young girl of talent is here. She is to have a place on the American screen. Prominent directors are every day making camera tests of novices. Rupert Hughes, casting for his newest Goldwyn photoplay, recently tried out a number of inexperienced girls for parts. Allen Holubar, looking for players for "Broken Chains," the prize-winning Goldwyn scenario contest story, is not confining his efforts to the studios. He is interviewing scores of aspirants who have never before had opportunities to see what they could do. The established actor no longer means everything to the intelligent director. The youthful girl who is filled with enthusiasm, who is pliable and clever, has a bigger chance to succeed on the screen than ever before. An interesting development of the contest has been the revelation that beauty can happen anywhere. Once upon a time, we took it for granted that the eastern girl was dignified, poised, perfectly attired; while her western sister was breezy, bluff, boyish. That the southern girl was languid and liquidly beautiful; that the middle-western miss was sedate and serious. The entrants have upset all the traditions. One of the most petite and exquisite of all is a country girl — a Missouri farmer's daughter. The west is well represented with slender, quiet, distinctive young ladies. The southern beauties have been anything but languid, while several of the most individual and picturesque entrants live in that supposedly sophisticated and standardized city, Manhattan, N. Y. Remember that the contest closes Ju'y 1st, 1922. That the leaders in the race will be pictured and announced in the September issue of Photoplay. That the eventful day on which the fortunate winner will be announced is not very far off. There are still a few days — send in your photograph now if you haven't already done so. Do not miss the next issues. They will be of great interest to every contestant and to every film enthusiast in the world.
