The Complete Metropolis

On Wednesday me and my buddy Chris went to see a special screening of Fritz Lang's 1927 film, Metropolis. Held at the Salle Wilfred Pelletier at Place des Arts here in Montréal, complete with a live, 13-piece orchestra, it made for quite the experience.

Honestly though, although my knowledge of early 20th century films is massively lacking,
I would recommend this movie to anyone. It was pretty awesome, though cheesy at times through our silly 2010 eyes.

  1. I wish I saw that movie! Is it impossible now?

  2. I think it was a one-time event. But I wouldn't be surprised if it came out on DVD at some point.
