Lang's Metropolis Finally Complete (after 80 yrs)
I am so glad I put off seeing the film. It appears I am finally beginning to reap the sweet rewards of my lackadaisical nature!
Missing scenes from Fritz Lang's Metropolis turn up after 80 years The cinematic world was today celebrating the rediscovery of missing scenes from German director Fritz Lang's legendary silent film Metropolis - thought lost for 80 years, until they were found in the archive of a museum in Argentina. Key scenes cut from the science fiction picture - either because they were considered to be too brutal or too long - will now be available for the first time since May 1927, when the original version was last shown in Berlin ... The head of the Berlin film museum Deutsche Kinematik, Dr Rainer Rother, called the find a "sensational discovery", adding that one of the most famous films of all time "can now be seen through new eyes".

I'm so sick of these after-the-fact "director's cuts." Hasn't Fritz Lang gotten enough of my money?

Can't wait to see this. Good reason for a party, IMHO...

According to my not-quite photographic memory, it was once rumored to have been missing several reels, as in up to 3 of 7. Forrest Ackerman, the world's pre-eminent sci-fi fan and Metropolis expert, should know the answer.
Let's call him. |
