MGM Home Entertainment offers a bit of nostalgia this holiday season with the MGM Decades Collection, available on DVD December 4.  With a never-ending catalog of classic cinema, MGM has selected three notable films from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s and packaged each disc with a collectible booklet by LIFE Magazine highlighting historical events from that particular decade along with a compact disc featuring the classic music that defined each generation.

Selections from the 1950s include the Sidney Lumet classic 12 Angry Men, the film rated by the American Film Institute (AFI) as the funniest film of all time, Some Like It Hot   featuring legendary screen siren Marilyn Monroe, and the timeless musical Guys & Dolls.   Films from the 1960s include Mike Nichols' Oscar winning film   The Graduate,   the epic family fantasy   Chitty Chitty Bang Bang   and Robert Wise's   West Side Story,   based on the hit live theater show that celebrated its 50th anniversary this year.   Referred to as the Me Decade by best-selling author Tom Wolfe, the 1970s features MGM classics Fiddler On The Roof, Stephen King's Carrie and Mel Gibson in the apocalyptic Mad Max. Lastly, the generation that introduced the word yuppie into the American lexicon, the 1980s is represented by Cher's Academy Award-winning turn in Moonstruck, Rob Reiner's hilarious When Harry Met Sally and John Cusack in The Sure Thing.

Each DVD in the MGM Decades Collection will be available for the suggested retail price of $19.98 US/$25.98 Canada.
