Metropolis Lagniappe


For those who appreciate good, historic, dystopian science fiction-y entertainment, NPR reports that approximately 20 minutes of missing footage from Fritz Lang's Metropolis was discovered in a Buenos Aires museum.

I don't normally link to audio reports, but it's worth a listen for those so inclined.

To be truthful, I've always found the ending of the movie to be a bit hasty and stilted. Still, it holds its own, especially considering it's over eighty years old.
