Sony Pictures Studios is one of the major film studios in Hollywood. In 2004, its parent company acquired Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) Studios, the home of many of Old Hollywood classics and the most powerful film studio in Old Hollywood. MGM was known for its glossy, bright, Technicolor style, complete with lavish wardrobes, high priced sets, and “more stars than there are in the heavens” – Elizabeth Taylor, Spencer Tracey, Katharine Hepburn, Clark Gable, Lucille Ball, just to name a few!
