The film closes with closeups of the studio's major stars and a tribute to the studio's actors who have joined the armed forces.
O Milagre do Som
Editor
Douglas Shearer, engenheiro de som da MGM, nos leva num passeio pelos bastidores para apresentar a forma como a parte de som de um filme falado é criada. Usa o filme Divino Tormento ou Bitter Sweet (1940) (Com imagens de Jeanette MacDonald e Nelson Eddy) e o filme O Inimigo X ou Comrade X (1940) (Com imagens de Clark Gable e Hedy Lamarr) para ilustrar as técnicas. Partes deste curta estão em Technicolor, incluindo um impressionante teste de tela de Greer Garson para o filme Flores do Pó ou Blossoms in the Dust (1941). O resultado é um "desfile" de trailers dos próximos filmes da MGM que mostram quase toda a constelação de estrelas da MGM.
