Metropolis

Director: Fritz Lang Run Time: 149 min. Format: 35mm Release Year: 1927 Language: German

Starring: Alfred Abel, Brigitte Helm, Gustav Fröhlich, Rudolf Klein-Rogge, Theodor Loos

It’s the big daddy (mommy?) of Sci-Fi in Fritz Lang’s monsterpiece about the working class struggle and sexy robots. Look, I dunno what to say, this is an obelisk of a film that we all live in the shadow of. Monumental on so many levels, to carry the metaphor on the backs of so much labour (second metaphor).
