MGM: When The Lion Roars End Montage

Clad in an array of elegant outfits, Patrick Stewart hosts TCM’s three-part profile of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer--better known as MGM. As he proclaims in his best stage diction, “There’s magic in the very name!“ Part one, “The Lion’s Roar,“ examines the partnership Louis B. Mayer and Irving G. Thalberg formed in 1924, leading to a vast Culver City back lot, crowd-pleasing productions like Grand Hotel, and legendary stars, such as Greta Garbo and Lon Chaney.
