Metrópolis (1927)

Movie Review by: VictorSobrino    


This abstract was translated from Metrópolis (1927)
The movie was premiered in 1927 in Germany.  Two months later in New York but in a version reduced.  The sculptures, the
robberies and the arrangements along with the designs of Otto hunte were crucial for the success of the movie.one of the better movies of science fición of every time. 
The plot was located in the 2026.  In a great full city of consolation, the social hyphen of the world had been changed on the period of time.  A world divided into two: groups of workers and an elite of thinkers.  Thinkers that live a comfortable life.  They possess the majority of the valuable resources for their consolations.  The thinkers dominate the company.  In another side, the workers live in the lower part of the city enel meter and they work for the day for the thinkers and at night.  The city is handled for Johann "Joh" Fredersen.
In the company of workers a girl called Maria takes the responsibility for the company of workers to win its status.  There was a Mediator of Machine in the city to who industrious that serve.  Maria asks that Mediator help him.  She requests to leave up two halves of the company.  The son of Fredersen is lover of Maria.  So he travelled to the meter in search of her.  The he has a shok upon seeing the living conditions of the workers and his degradation in the company. 
Rotwang is a scientist that was rival to Fredersen.  Fredersen thinks that Rotwang created a robot.  That robot can take any appearance desired.  So Fredersen decides to give him the appearance of Maria, to take control on the company of workers.  The Maria original was abducted by Rotwang and instead of its robot works now.  The son of Fredersen was to discover first that now Maria comes be different by queella cannot understand the feelings of the humanity.  A Machine of the Mediator of the day that is destroyed.  The entire city falls low threat of a little flood before the end of the movie. 
In the last one decada the complete version for the expert public has been reprinted, and has been carried out also an encourage based on this.  And writes down as an antecedent of the literature and the cinematography about the city, the social spheres and kinds like the cyberpunk.
