Metropolis, with the new footage... on the big screen!

Oh wow... I am really looking forward to this. A lot. For those who don't know about Metropolis I recommend reading Ebert's review: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/19980328/REVIEWS08/401010341/1023 . The story of how it was made is also fascinating since it used all kinds of physical lens tricks and mirrors etc. to create the phantasmagoric visions of the future which are only part of the wonder that Lang was able to craft.
