@longlosttrivia: Accurate or no? Metropolis (1927) is a landmark German Expressionist silent film directed by Fritz Lang, considered a foundational work of science fiction cinema, known for its dystopian vision of a futuristic city divided between the wealthy elite and oppressed workers. The story follows Freder, the son of the city's ruler, who falls for a working-class prophetess named Maria, leading him to discover the harsh realities of the laborers and the conflict between the "head" (planners) and the "hands" (workers). The film is famous for its groundbreaking special effects, elaborate Art Deco/Modernist set design, and enduring themes of class struggle, technology, and humanity, influencing countless films like Blade Runner and The Matri #History #future #2026 #100years #film

Isn't it fun we thought the future cities would look so good but under capitalism nothing thrives or gets better unless the poor suffer

Metropolis is a dystopian vision of a futuristic city divided between the wealthy elite and oppressed workers. It's the OG cyberpunk.
This came out in the same era as when The Battle of Blaire Mountain occurred and is the same era that the Great Gatsby is set in. It was made in a time just after the gilded age and world war one, but just before the stock market crash leading into the great depression.
One could say the more things change the more they stay the same.
