    Christian preaching, extremely conservative and ignorant. But the performance is very staged, the scene is also very huge, and the scale is not small. No sci-fi movies to...

    It was shot in the 20s, it's amazing, but it's also a typical example of central...

    The 153-minute restored version is a great movie. The dystopian concept is very good. It also created several typical characters and became the source of many movie characters in the future. It is just that the class tone of "hands and brains need hearts to reconcile" is a bit of a nostalgia. At that time, the sci-fi imagination of the future, the techniques used and the effects presented were all...

    What is exquisite and what is grand. . . Facts once again prove that a good sci-fi film does not depend on stunts, but on...

    An incomplete dystopian fable, but a future conception + religious metaphor is still enough to create an excellent viewing experience. The performance of the two-city structure is quite magnificent, and it is really remarkable to be able to make such an effect nearly a hundred years ago. The ideology is reformist. Metropolis is the Tower of Babel and Babylon that did not completely collapse, Mary is the Christ who escaped capture, and Hull is the demonized rebel. Fritz Lang sharply saw the...

    This is a film that requires stories to have stories, conflicts to conflict, and scenes to scenes, provided that this is a 1927 black-and-white silent film. The two Marias represent the two ways of the revolution, and the lawless riot clearly exposes the fatal weakness of the "physical class" who are easily incited and lack independent thought. The end of the handshake is just a hilarious evasion, the "physical class" has actually been defeated, and it is still right to advocate a proper...

    It seems that the abridged versions of the past dynasties have hoped to confuse angels and demons and emphasize the extreme functions of pan-politicization or depoliticization. Even though this full version, which is infinitely close, has gone further, the film artist in the ontological sense has been reduced over time. Almost disappeared after the...

    #Archive# The restoration version of the second brush is a magnificent and rich masterpiece, which is both socially critical and commercial and entertaining. After all, it is produced by the country that gave birth to "Das Kapital", and it is the cover of "The Great Movie" after all. The animal story of the ancient society, the machine alienates the mind; the saint banshee is a white and black swan, a doppelganger with two bodies on one side; the sci-fi design is advanced, and it has influenced...

    German Expressionism/Contrast of Light and Shadow/Close-Up/Large Depth of Field/Parallel Montage/Experimental Nature of the Eye/Seven Deadly Sins; Madonna & Defiler: The Collision of Feminine Flesh and Iron-faced Metal; What is Revolution? Two Marys are the two ways of revolution; the top is white, the workers are black, and the regulator is gray; "the regulator of the brain and hands is the heart"; even if religion and politics are not discussed, this is a...

    Expressionist mise-en-scène is unrivaled in the history of cinema, namely the set, lighting, costumes and performances. From this came the existence of many visually-defining nouns, which have been inherited and used repeatedly in films for a hundred years. It is also interesting to see the...
