CUSIP No. 566330  10  6
- -----------------------



         This  Amendment  No.  20 to  Schedule  13G with  regard  to The  Marcus
Corporation  is being filed on behalf of the  undersigned to amend Item 4 of the
originally  filed Schedule 13G.  Except as expressly  stated herein,  there have
been no material changes in the information set forth in the Schedule 13G.

Item 4.       Ownership (as of December 31, 1998):

              (a) Amount Beneficially Owned: 3,024,733

              (b) Percent of Class: 10.10%

              (c) Number of shares as to which such person has:

                     (i)    sole power to vote or to direct the vote:  2,060,925
                            Shares

                     (ii)   shared power to vote or to direct the vote:  963,808
                            Shares

                     (iii)  sole power to  dispose or to direct the  disposition
                            of: 2,060,925 Shares

                     (iv)   shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition
                            of: 963,808 Shares

         The undersigned currently has the right to acquire upon the exercise of
stock  options  granted by The Marcus  Corporation  under its stock  option plan
5,375  shares  of  Common  Stock;   76,270  shares  of  Common  Stock  are  held
individually by the undersigned;  and 150 shares of Common Stock are held by Ms.
Gershowitz's  husband.  The remaining  reported  beneficial  ownership of Common
Stock results from the  beneficial  ownership of shares of Class B Common Stock,
which are convertible at any time into Common Stock on a share-for-share  basis.
The percentage of class figure assumes  conversion of all outstanding  shares of
Class B Common  Stock into shares of Common  Stock.  Since each share of Class B
Common  Stock is  entitled  to 10 votes as  opposed  to 1 vote for each share of
Common Stock, it is extremely unlikely that Ms. Gershowitz would alone convert a
significant portion of her Class B Stock into Common Stock.

         Ms. Gershowitz's beneficial ownership consists of:

              (i)    5,375 shares of Common Stock which Ms.  Gershowitz  has the
                     right to acquire upon exercise of stock options;

              (ii)   150  shares  of  Common  Stock  held  individually  by  Ms.
                     Gershowitz's husband;

              (iii)  76,270  shares of Common  Stock  held  individually  by Ms.
                     Gershowitz;

              (iv)   1,979,280 shares of Class B Common Stock held  individually
                     by Ms. Gershowitz;

              (v)    1,507 shares of Class B Common Stock held  individually  by
                     Ms. Gershowitz's husband; and

              (vi)   962,151  shares  of  Class  B  Common  Stock  held  by  Ms.
                     Gershowitz as Trustee.

         The trusts and Mr. Gershowitz, for shares held individually,  each have
the right to receive  dividends and proceeds  from the sale of  securities  held
thereby.
