'''FX/SFX:''' Unknown, as the recording this comes from cuts most of the logo off, meaning we only get to see the very end portion of the logo.

'''Logo:''' On an ominously-dark cloudy sky-scape, we see a transparent, crystallized winged man standing against some mountains. The camera pans outward as he jumps up and remains in the air, as his wings move back and forth. The camera pans to his left as he freezes in the air, where several white streaks appear across his body. The {{Font color|silver|silver}} word "{{Font color|silver|POLYGRAM}}" flies under the man and centers in place as he flashes white all over and becomes still. "FILMED ENTERTAINMENT" (or "FILMS") appears under "{{Font color|silver|POLYGRAM}}", and everything shines.

'''Trivia:''' This logo was designed by Michael J. Deas, who painted and designed the 1992 [[Columbia Pictures]] and 1993 [[Merv Griffin Enterprises]] logos, and animated by the London-based Picture Production Company. It was created to coincide with the launch of PolyGram Films, which was to release PFE's big-budget releases in the U.S. The logo was based off of the sculpture "Speed" by Harriet Whitney Frishmuth, intended as a hood ornament for cars by the Gorham Manufacturing Company. It may be based off of the ancient Greek statue known as ''The Winged Victory of Samothrace''.

* There are two variants done for some films shot in the 2.35 aspect ratio. There is one where the 1.85 variant is cropped to 2.35 to accommodate the scope format. The other one is where the 4:3 version is cropped to 2.35. The cropped 1.85 version can be found on the PolyGram Video DVD of ''Your Friends and Neighbors''. The cropped 4.3 version plasters over the prototype version on some prints of ''The Game''.

* Another variant exists where "FILM DISTRIBUTION" replaces "FILMED ENTERTAINMENT". This can be spotted on a French trailer for ''The Borrowers'' in a short version while the full version is found on both ''Fin août, début septembre'' and ''Trafic d'influence,'' the latter of which is in scope.

'''FX/SFX:''' The winged man moving and the letters appearing. Even decades later this is very good, beautiful animation for 1997.
