"...Made in Germany during the Weimar Period, Metropolis is set in a futuristic urban dystopia and follows the attempts of Freder, the wealthy son of the city's ruler, and Maria, a poor worker, to overcome the vast gulf separating the classes of their city. ..."

- weinzierl 11y agoMetropolis has quite an interesting history: The original cut was lost and only fragments survived. Since the 80s the most popular version was one made by Giorgio Moroder (the same guy that worked with Daft Punk on the Album Random Access Memories). Over the years different versions and scenes were found all over the world and since 2010 there is version that is considered close to the original. Popular culture is full of references to this movie, from "The Fifth Element" to Queen's "Radio Ga Ga". I can also highly recommend "M"[1].
