Stockholders Approve Merger of Durwood, Inc. Into AMCE      

Kansas City, Mo. (August 15, 1997) AMC Entertainment Inc. (AMCE) announced      
that its stockholders today approved a merger of Durwood, Inc., AMCE's          
principal stockholder, into AMCE. In addition to receiving the statutory        
required vote, the merger was approved by a majority vote of AMCE's             
unaffiliated stockholders.                                                      

The merger proposal was previously announced in April 1997. In the merger,      
stockholders of Durwood, Inc. will exchange their shares of Durwood, Inc.       
for shares of AMCE stock. Outstanding shares of AMCE's common stock will        
increase and outstanding shares of its Class B shares will decrease as a        
result of the merger. However, no aggregate increase in total outstanding       
shares will occur because shares of AMCE owned by Durwood Inc. will be          
canceled, and shares held by other stockholders will not be exchanged in        
the merger.                                                                     

Durwood, Inc. was primarily a holding company with no significant               
operations or assets other than its equity interest in AMCE. The merger         
will be accounted for as a corporate reorganization, and the recorded           
balances for consolidated assets, liabilities, total stockholders' equity       
and results of the operations of AMCE will not be affected. AMCE does not       
believe the transaction will have a significant effect on its financial         
condition, liquidity or capital resources.                                      

AMC Entertainment Inc. (AMCE) is an entertainment company principally           
involved in motion picture exhibition in the U.S., through its largest          
operating subsidiary, American Multi-Cinema, Inc. (AMC). AMCE also is           
involved in exhibition in select international markets. AMCE, headquartered     
in Kansas City, Mo., has 2,052 screens, 228 theatres in 23 states, District     
of Columbia, Portugal and Japan. Its common stock trades on the American        
and Pacific Stock Exchanges under the symbol AEN, and its preferred stock       
trades on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol AEN Pr.
