Fritz Lang's masterpiece 1927 silent film about a futuristic city where the rich live in luxury while the workers live underground and run the dangereous machinery that keeps the city going. Quite a striking vision and clearly an influential SF film. ( ) Bought this illustrated edition to replace my text-only ed. Highly enjoyable story for which the stills from the film and posters and other artwork enhanced. B&W throughout. The introduction by Forrest Ackerman was excellent, a partial fiction in itself. Mentions of comparisons between Metropolis with RUR, Erewhon, The Time Machine, When the Sleeper Wakes, Land Under England, Looking Backward, Summer in 3000; and he ranks the book alongside The World Below, The House on the Borderland, The Demolished Man, The Forever War, Childhood's End, Last Men in London, Stranger in a Strange Land, and 1984 Il film si svolge nel XXI secolo a Metropolis, una città futuristica e futuristicamente dominata da un ricco industriale, che vive insieme a tutta la classe superiore fuori terra. I lavori neri e il funzionamento delle macchine sono responsabili per i lavoratori e gli schiavi che lavorano e vivono sottoterra. Metropolis è un classico che è uno dei punti salienti dell'espressionismo tedesco nel cinema. Lang disegna nella sua geniale caratteristica di incredibili immagini visive che sono state citate e influenzate da innumerevoli film.
The movie has a plot that defies common sense, but its very discontinuity is a strength. It makes "Metropolis" hallucinatory--a nightmare without the reassurance of a steadying story line. Few films have ever been more visually exhilarating. I have recently seen the silliest film. I do not believe it would be possible to make one sillier. It is called Metropolis, it comes from the great Ufa studios in Germany, and the public is given to understand that it has been produced at enormous cost... Capek's Robots have been lifted without apology, and that soulless mechanical monster of Mary Shelley's, who has fathered so many German inventions, breeds once more in this confusion. Originality there is none. Independent thought, none... There is some rather good swishing about in water, after the best film traditions, some violent and unconvincing machine-breaking and rioting and wreckage, and then, rather confusedly, one gathers that Masterman has learnt a lesson, and that workers and employers are now to be reconciled by 'Love.'... Never for a moment does one believe any of this foolish story; for a moment is there anything amusing or convincing in its dreary series of strained events. It is immensely and strangely dull... Six million marks! The waste of it!
