LADY LUCK
TAKES A BACK SEAT
Luck!
Sure! One smashing hit that sets all fandom talking might be "luck".
Two country-wide successes might even be wished onto Lady Luck — if you're good at wishing —
But one long unbroken parade of record-breaking wows — that's something else again!
Lady Luck didn't make Smash hits like "The Big Parade", "Ben Hur", "Tell it to the Marines", "The Merry Widow" and "White Shadows of the South Seas".
More stars than there are in Heaven, plus brilliant directors plus great stories plus the great resources of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer organization are some reasons for the long and imposing list of M-G-M's smash hits.
If you want a guarantee for the future it lies in the performance of the past.
