We have spoken of the 13 newcomers on which MGM pins its hopes for a continuing string of successful productions. Let’s list some of the stars that are to appear in the lineup of feature releases from Culver City. If your favorite isn't on this list, it will be a real surprise.
Starring in coming features are Gregory Peck, Debbie Reynolds, John Wayne, Bob Hope, Lana Turner, Glenn Ford, Olivia deHavilland, Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, Trevor Howard, Laurence Harvey, Geraldine Page, Eva Marie Saint, Charlton Heston, Doris Day, Kirk Douglas, Susan Hayward, Jimmy Durante, Stephen Boyd, Edward G.

This is by no means a complete list, but it does furnish some idea of a very pleasant situation for any film company.
There are some critics of this fabulous world of motion pictures who somehow find it difficult to accept the fact that films racking up a commercial success can at the same time have a claim to artistic excellence. Blinded by the goodies from abroad, and ignoring the fact that only a relative handful of filmgoers will ever see such efforts, no matter how worthy they may be, they have a tendency to dismiss the films made by American moviemakers all too lightly.
Leo the MGM Lion wears his motto proudly— “Ars Gratia Artis.” We hope we are not out of line when we wish MGM’s star-studded and wonderfully varied lineup of future releases a happy commercial future as well. Movies are the entertain¬ ment medium of the masses, and the seemingly endless flow of mediocrity from the tv screen only solidifies this position.
The Lion has never been so frisky. May his roaring long endure.
