Los Angeles, CA (March 28th, 2005)—FADE IN – the only consumer magazine for film enthusiasts interested in a more revealing, comprehensive look behind the scenes of the entertainment industry as well as in-depth interviews with their favorite stars and filmmakers – announces its 2005 Awards edition (Vol. 8, No. 2) the highest selling issue in the publication’s nine-year history. Featuring an unprecedented ten-page Q&A with cover subject Tom Cruise, FADE IN’s Awards issue has sold a remarkable 86.3% of all newsstand and bookstore copies to date, breaking the previous sell-through record of 64%.

“We’re excited to announce that FADE IN’s Awards issue is the best-selling edition since the magazine’s 1994 inception,” said Editor-in-Chief Audrey Kelly. “Because Tom Cruise is Hollywood’s biggest movie star ever we knew that the cover would draw consumers at the newsstand, though we weren’t expecting an almost 90 percent sell-through. We’re extremely proud of this achievement.”
