A mixed bag of a documentary, which is mostly an MGM clip show. There’s some interesting behind-the-scenes clips about the making of movies, but it mostly focuses on the history of MGM, starting with a live auction of some iconic props from classic films and some footage of the deteriorating backlot. It’s an easy watch, though, at less than an hour, so I’d recommend it for die-hard movie history buffs, especially MGM fans. The best thing about this short documentary is that it (presumably) inspired the much longer, better, and better-looking That’s Entertainment series, in which the first one premiered two years later. 2 years 3 months ago -
