A masterpiece that is not suitable for public viewing but needs to be popularized

⬜️The dune fry is hot recently? Let me turn over the Metropolis and read it again. Finally, I sorted out the little knowledge that I found interesting about this work, a total of three pages. Looking forward to discussing with more people~

⬜️Actually, it’s quite interesting to watch mime in this era~ Exaggerated body movements, repeated facial expressions in close-up scenes, and the same lines as the announcement, these are more protracted and tedious in today’s fast-paced life. But this kind of emotional expression is purer and more personal. If all commercial blockbusters are removed from the special effects, the BGM, and the scenery, what will be left? Maybe only the enthusiasm of fans is left ❤️

⬜️In addition, I would like to share a little gossip about the original work and the director.

The director and the writer are a couple? They were both married before they actually met~ They didn't officially marry until 1922, after the mysterious death of Lang's first wife. The screenwriter's name is Habu, a Bavarian noble genius girl. After the two got married, they wandered outside each other, and the romantic stories continued. Harb joined the Nazi party and then formally divorced Lang.

  • Maria: Today I will tell you the legend of THE TOWER OF BABEL... "Come, let us build us a tower whose top may reach unto the stars! And the top of the tower we will write the words: Great is the world and its Creator! And great is Man!" But the minds that had conceived the Tower of Babel could not build it. The task was too great. So they hired hands for wages. But the hands that built the Tower of Babel knew nothing of the dream of the brain that had conceived it. BABEL. BABEL. BABEL. BABEL. One man's hymns of praise became other men's curses. People spoke the same language, but could not understand each other...
