MGM Studios (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer; abbreviated: MGM) is one of the five major Hollywood studios, and a symbol of American cinema and Hollywood, founded in 1924. MGM's outstanding film "Gone with the Wind", the classic cartoon "Cat and Mouse", the enduring "James Bond" and the establishment of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and the Academy Awards are all testimony to the immortality of MGM Studios. The Leo the Lion logo was once seen as a symbol of America.
