I get so much happiness from this.
A fantastic movie that felt very unusual to me when I first watched it. I have a 2 hour version, but there is text missing compared to the version the flixster's video clips come from. Some people may not understand Metropolis and what it is about, but many scenes have been cut out. The original was 3 hours, but the american experts cut it so only 1 hour remained. I have read somewhere that there was a character, named Hel, that was cut out because they did not like her name. She is the reason why the mad professor creates such a robot.
The movie is very, very well done as a movie during the 1920's. I will never forget it. The version I watched seemed older than the 'restored authorized edition', it was dark in the corners of the picture and brighter in the middle, and dust in the picture, but that made the movie even more special as I watched it. I feel like watching this movie again.
