1925 Tour of MGM Studios

Simply amazing footage of the mighty Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios just a year after its founding. We see the vastness of the studio itself, but also incredible footage of so many filmmaking legends - their names are too numerous to list, just keep watching to the end. One thing to note: the directors are far less comfortable in front of the camera than the 'players', who know just what side to turn for maximum effect! Enjoy... And for more visit TheFilmColony.com. (Opening music is Artie Shaw's Solid Sam, and thereafter all music is by the prolific Zez Confrey.)
