      This Amendment No. 10 amends and supplements the Statement on
Schedule 13D filed on November 18, 1997, as amended on November 26, 1997,
on July 27, 1998, on August 19, 1998, on September 2, 1998, on October 26,
1998, on November 20, 1998, on February 4, 1999, on May 4, 1999, and on
October 18, 1999 (as so amended, the "Schedule 13D"), relating to the
common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Shares"), of
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
previously filed by Tracinda Corporation, a Nevada corporation
("Tracinda"), 250 Rodeo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("250 Rodeo" and,
collectively with Tracinda, the "Tracinda Entities"), and Mr. Kirk
Kerkorian. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this
Amendment No. 10 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

1. Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following
   information:

      The funds for the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the Tracinda
Entities' exercise of all of their Rights (as defined below) were obtained,
in the case of Tracinda, pursuant to the Credit Agreement and, in the case
of 250 Rodeo, from a capital infusion.

2. Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following
   information:

      The additional information provided in response to Item 5 in this
Amendment No. 10 is incorporated herein by reference.

3. Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add to each of the
   indicated subsections the following information:

      (a) Tracinda and Mr. Kerkorian are the beneficial owners of
179,276,977 Shares (including the Shares purchased and directly held by 250
Rodeo upon exercise of its Rights), or approximately 89.1% of the Shares
outstanding based upon the number of Shares outstanding after giving effect
to the Rights Offering, as reported in the Company's Prospectus Supplement
relating to the Rights Offering, which was dated and filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission as of October 15, 1999 (the "Prospectus
Supplement"). 250 Rodeo is the beneficial owner of the 19,758,648 Shares it
holds directly, which number includes the Shares it purchased through
exercise of all of its Rights, or approximately 9.8% of the Shares
outstanding based upon the number of Shares outstanding after giving effect
to the Rights Offering, as reported in the Prospectus Supplement.

      (c) On October 15, 1999, the Company commenced a right offering (the
"Rights Offering"), pursuant to which the Company distributed to the
holders of its outstanding common stock transferable subscription rights
("Rights") to subscribe for and purchase additional Shares for a price of
$14.50 per share. The Rights Offering expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on November 8, 1999. On November 8, 1999, the Tracinda Entities
received 44,279,254 Shares from the Company in connection with their
exercise of all of the Rights distributed to them. The aggregate purchase
price for such Shares was $642,049,183. The Tracinda Entities and the
Company were parties to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated October 15, 1999
(the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), whereby the Tracinda Entities had
irrevocably agreed to exercise such Rights and purchase such Shares,
subject to certain conditions.

4. Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following
   information:

      The additional information provided in response to Item 5 in this
Amendment No. 10 is incorporated herein by reference.

      The Tracinda Entities did not transfer any of the 44,279,254 Rights
distributed to them on October 15, 1999 prior to the expiration of the
Rights Offering. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Tracinda
Entities fully exercised their basic subscription privilege with respect to
all Rights held by them immediately prior to the expiration of the Rights
Offering and thereby acquired an aggregate of 44,279,254 Shares pursuant to
such exercise. As required by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Tracinda
Entities did not exercise their oversubscription privilege with respect to
the Rights Offering. The Shares acquired pursuant to the Stock Purchase
Agreement by the Tracinda Entities will be pledged pursuant to the Credit
Agreement.

      As a result of an aggregate oversubscription of Rights by
stockholders of the Company other than the Tracinda Entities, 250 Rodeo was
not required to purchase any Shares in connection with its obligation
pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement to purchase all Shares that were
not otherwise subscribed for at the close of the Rights Offering.

      As of October 16, 1999, Mr. Jerome B. York and Tracinda mutually
cancelled: Mr. York's Letter Agreement with Tracinda; and, Mr. York's
Options to purchase 2,000,000 Shares owned by Tracinda, all of which
Options were unvested as of such date.

5. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 10 does not
   modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule 13D.


                                 SIGNATURE

            After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and
belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
complete and correct.
