source 24 FPS
If you are a lover of movies or a student of film studies if you were to study one movie to learn about film making especially how to creat a dystopian sci-fi , you should look no further than METROPOLIS.

The silent movie masterpiece was created by Fritz Lang in 1927 and a few years back, 25 minutes footage previously thought was lost was found and now the restoration of the complete movie is ready to be admired once again on our big screens. During September as well October special screeenings/educational screenings will take place all around UK & Ireland  and you can find the full list of screenings on the specially made website .
Just think if it wasnt for movies like this movies like Blade Runner and probably the whole science fiction movie genre wouldn't have been created, Metropolis is a true cinematic piece of history, trailer after the break....
