Silent Film: Metropolis

‘Metropolis’ (1927) directed by Fritz Lang.

The eye-popping silent film sci-fi masterpiece of German filmmaker Fritz Lang is a vintage look at things to come. Restored version includes nearly a half-hour of lost footage that was rediscovered in Argentina in 2008.

Shown with live music by Jeff Rapsis, a New Hampshire-based composer and performer who specializes in silent film accompaniment.
