Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is celebrating its second half-century in the film industry with Saul
David's lavish, unique and provocative production of "Logan's Run," starring Michael York, Jenny
Agutter, Richard Jordan, Roscoe Lee Browne, Farrah Fawcett-Majors and Peter Ustinov. Directed by
Michael Anderson of "Around the World in 80 Days" fame, and written for the screen by David
Zelag Goodman, the futuristic adventure drama is based on the novel "Logan's Run" by William F
Nolan and George Clayton Johnson.
