In the stratified society of the future (2000, no less), the son of a capitalist discovers the atrocious conditions of the factory slaves, falling in love with the charismatic Maria in the bargain, who preaches nonviolence to the workers. But even the benevolent leadership of Maria is a challenge to the privileged class, so they have the mad scientist Rotwang concoct a robot double to take her place and incite the workers to riot. The story is melodrama, but it's the powerful imagery that is so memorable. One of the most arresting images has legions of cowed workers filing listlessly into the great maw of the all-consuming machine-god Moloch. Metropolis is a visionary masterpiece. --Jim Gay\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 738329027520\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738329027520\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e KV2752DVD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e dvd\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49449825632515,"sku":"0I-YK0O-73WU","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/5110UDZrK7L.jpg?v=1786751975","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/metropolis-restored-authorized-edition","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
