      The Marmor Theatre, where this film premiered, sat at a corner of the Tiergarten, an immense fake wilderness area in the center of Berlin. The theatre was known for presentation of 'art films' like Metropolis, and was seen as more of an exotic curiosity than the immense cinematic exclamation point it has become. Key scenes depict futuristic 'Metropolitans' dressed in the same tuxedos and evening dresses as the very audience watching them, making a clear connection between the film's indolent elites and the decadent society of Weimar-era Germany. A significant portion of the film depicts scenes from the Old Testament, evoking ancient moral lessons about a society's technology outstripping its own development. 35 years before this film came out, an unusually warm winter and spring caused the failure of beer production across central Europe; the answer was to embrace technology, employ modern refrigeration techniques, and start making lager beer instead. Today Heineken is king, and dazzling urbanites, no less indolent or decadent, twist and frug in silk and sequins, with their ubiquitous little green bottles, but not on a cabaret stage, but a much more innovative media... the television screen.

    I really like Metropolis because it is such a prominent example of how the 1920s portrayed "Sci-Fi" and one can make really interesting contrasts between Metropolis and what came about later (Star Trek, Star Wars, the Dune film) and the way Sci-Fi has evolved over almost 100 years.

    This film could be the greatest collections of imagery in motion picture. Ridley Scott made
    Blade Runner as an au mage to Fritz Lang’s
    Metropolis.
    This film could not be made today. Doubtful the audience would understand the genius and the message.
    Fritz Lang died in 1971 and knew we were headed to self destruction. I hope and pray
    he was wrong.
    Since I was a child I have never forgotten
    seeing this film. it took so many years to restore these beautiful images. this is why
    i made film my career. 44yrs and never has
    there been any film so powerful. Blade Runner
    is it’s stepchild.
    RIP Fritz Lang and thank you Ridley Scott for
    your affirmation of why this beautiful film is
    so special.

      Why would the message be lost on today's audience? The concept of a prosperous society built on the backs of an oppressed and exploited lower class is still one of the most common tropes in cinema and television. Prince of Egypt, 12 years a slave, Elysium, the hunger games, V for vendetta, Arcane, into the badlands; the list goes on. Stop being pretentious and condescending.

    It's always facinating to see classics in colour. But the shame about it is that it's to the detriment of the lighting which was one of the most important and thought of aspect of black and white movies.

      Indeed, and I think Fritz Lang might have objected to coloring the steam yellow, since the use of mustard gas had killed scores of allied troops during WWI which would have been in recent memory at the time of this film’s release.

    Not all cuts worked for me but the colorization of some - especially with actors - was quite startling. Very stylized.
    I could only imagine scores of artists rotoscoping designated sections of each cut to be subjected to specific colour grading. Maybe this is more practical now with machine learning like The Foundry NukeX Copycat node, I don't know.
    I have long had an aversion to the colorization of classic B+W films that were lit and shot for gamma 0.65 black and while negatives. Not sure how happy I would be with Casablanca in colour. However I'm willing to accept the notion that colorization is not a kind of 'improvement'- correcting the monochrome defect of the time - but a wholly separate interpretation with an additional layer of post-production artistry overlaid on the original, as long as people understand this was not how it was originally shot and presented.
    Fascinating. Well done. I wonder what Fritz Lang would have thought?

    You can clearly see a lot of details that likely inspired works that followed. Blade Runner comes to mind, Star Wars, arguably even a bit of Bioshock. Though no work of art exists in a vacuum, this is a mesh of futurism, art-deco, a bit of Roaring 1920s fever. It's funny how by now their fears and hopes for the future both already lay in our past.
