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.

I know you've heard those words before, but even now I'm beginning to think of wifehood as my permanent career and motion pictures as a temporary one. And I swear I am not going to hang on, waiting for the professional crumbs that drop from the table." | COULDN'T resist saying, "And until the time comes for Mrs Roger Pryor to take up her old-fashioned wifely duties, how does she plan to manage about social engagements and so forth while she's living the life of Hollywood's most modern bride?"
