Because Screen land is in and of Hollywood and knows the truth, and because it has the sincerity and the high courage to give the world the truth about Hollywood, its pages bring you tales as romantic and fascinating as those of the Arabian Nights. if you have a split lipAround February first, don't read your March Screenland.
