Feature Films

1945 – 2006 16 cartoons

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was behind a lot of animation in feature length films. In the classic period, animation- most notably MGM animation stars Tom and Jerry- made cameo appearances in popular films. In more modern times, MGM has produced a variety of fully-animated films, usually in partnership with Don Bluth and Gary Goldman.
