Metropolis (1927)

October 05, 2020

Directed by Fritz Lang.

One would think that I would have seen this before but apparently I missed it. Thankfully that oversight has been corrected.

In my late teens and twenties, there were films that proved instrumental in shaping the way I think about the world - or at least reinforced my world view. Twenty plus years later, I am interested in revisiting these films and discovering ones that I missed back then, or slept through, or was too drunk to remember having watched. Why would I do this? I want to be reminded of what stood out as important to me then. I also am curious to see how my opinions and thoughts might have changed, or not, with time and experience. And, to reconnect with some classic films.
