Marvel at the vitality, imagination and tension between the plots contained in this 1927 film, true and false Maria, Frankenstein, android, metropolis, dungeon, the director's long-term vision, building a two hundred years later In the future world, the cyborg in Blade Runner finally has a trace.
The image of the huge machine and the monster overlapped, swallowing the flesh and blood of the laborers, and the impact of the image was mobilized to the greatest extent, shocking. The conditions of modern laborers reflected in Reincarnation and Weather Xuanhuang were predicted in this film nearly a hundred years ago. It's just that in the movie, the workers took the elevator, and today's people do the subway.
When the mechanical Maria dances on the stage, when her image coincides with the illustrations in the scriptures, the seven deadly sins also step down from the altar and become a reality, and the god of death has begun to harvest with a sickle, and people will eventually die In my own desire, this scene was too ironic.
It's just that under such a sci-fi and grand shell, there is only the raving of the heart connecting the brain and the hand, and dystopia finally becomes a compromise to reality, a hymn to capitalism, and recognition of the legalization of mechanical labor. Is it? The roots of the superior character of the German Nazis leaked traces here. It is a pity that after two hundred years of video construction, the thinking has regressed to the feudal era.
