Photoplay (Jul-Dec 1938)

(Continued from page 4) 5.00 PRIZES HO'S RIGHT? |i'E just finished reading a recent issue cyour Photoplay and of all the morcjic interviews the one with J. MacInald and G. Raymond was the most rironic. It reaches the height of — or sjuld I say depth of — something or Aer. For heaven's sake why don't sine of these stars come down to earth, laven only knows that some of them caldn't pass the fourth grade. What Is any of them ever accomplished. ■.11 they be immortal? Can one of (t|;m reach Mme. Curie's level? Yet Iky are assured and smug and vain, fcould act rings around a lot of them, Ht as I'm not beautiful or striking or pmorous, neither do I have a foreign fcent, I'll never reach the screen. I L like the movies very much and am a tf*ular customer, but I'm for better r >vies and less talk about Dotty Dim§;. Movie magazines are the ban (sic) t my like. Honestly those ghost writis should make fortunes just writing Biries with the line of bull they throw 1 the movie mags. Print this bit of f logy in your magazine, or don't you ere? Miss Grayce Torosian, Johnson City, N. Y. iNothing like a good dare to start out Mnorning! Our readers will be interred in the letter which follows this. KAR Jeanette and Gene Raymond — lu two gave Photoplay a grand artle. And somehow I believe you will like a go of what seems to be the imIssible for a whole lot of Holly|>oders. (Just why it should be so terribly ITlcult to stay married in Hollywood I something that a mere onlooker like ly-self can never understand. You two lem to think you are not much dif r-ent from John Jones and Mary Smith ring in Midwest Anystate. Gosh! You |11 probably be tarred and feathered your starry friends for such heresy. b.t, oh my, what a relief it is to know u actually feel that way. You peo can't be screen stars. You get arried in a church like anybody else stead of eloping to Yuma after an >uncing it over the radio. You take wedding trip instead of working on id on. You can't be real. You live simply and enjoy being with each other. Hooray for you. And long, long may you continue to be different from the average star and just like us common folk. Mildred Munday, Indianapolis, Ind. $1.00 PRIZE RIDE 'EM COWBOY I NEVER knew that Photoplay was so popular until somehow I got lucky and won first prize in "Boos and Bouquets" in the last March Photoplay for a letter which I wrote about lovely Miss Loretta Young. Well I did not have time to cash my check before I was diluged with so many letters my head swum. They was from people (mostly women) who congratilated me and asked if I wouldent write them a bit about cowpunchers life in Wyoming and please send them a picture of me. I commenced to answer all of the questions what was asked me, but I got writters cramp right away so I decided to spend some of my prize money for a second hand old typewriter as I was always wanting to operate one of them things. Befor I had got practiced up so I could write a perfect letter I had got letters from every state excepting Maine. But as letters are still comeing in at intervils maybe Maine won't let me down. My geography has been helped no end as all the girls told me about themselves as well as there surroundings. Gosh, but it sure was interesting reading. A young lady in Johannesburg, South Africa, asked if there was any "bioscopes" where I lived. I thought at first it was some kind of reptile but I since found that "bioscopes" was what us Americans call picture shows. One thing them letter writers had in common was they all read and like Photoplay emensly and they all raved about Loretta Young, and also they like Western movies. I sure would appreciate it much if a couple of lines was printed in Photoplay which says that "Tex" Brunton appreciates the letters he has got from Photoplay readers and that he will get around to answering them all eventsualy. I sure did like Loretta Young in "Three Blind Mice." I seen it thru twice. She sure is swell. "Tex" Brunton, Casper, Wyoming.
