“Metropolis” by Fritz Lang, an all time classic which induces creative imagery and a dehumanizing montage of robotics. This film also depicts several mainstream ideas and is reflected and created with no sound. Silent films have always been overacted and very cheesy to look at, but it’s amazing to me to see how excellent the film expressed the mood so well. The reason why Metropolis is so well loved and respected is not only because of the mood it captured, but how amazingly mind boggeling it was, I think since the time that electricity was discovered, we’ve all dove in with how far we could go with technology. And Metropolis is a haunting picture that captures it so well. With the history of how far back this film goes, its crazy how you can actually definitely tie this film in with present day technological conspiracy theories. This film in general expresses an excellent way with how cinema can be expressed even without sound. This is definitely a film that someone should watch, as it specializes in the art of film.
