(1925) - B&W - 119 min
The LikeTelevision™ Movie channel proudly presents Metropolis - a 1925 landmark silent film by Fritz Lang. This riveting movie is a must see for anyone who follows the history of film. In an ethereal time and place - men with brains (and "plans") control and dominate the workers, and the hands that build everything, including all the machines that rule their life. Amazing photography, huge sets and multiple tesla coils. Sci-Fi at its finest!

With Brigitte Helm as Maria (and the robot)

There can be no understanding between the hands and the brain unless the heart acts as mediator.

Alfred Abel as John Fredersen

Part one
John Fredersen, an industrialist "brain" runs a huge factory of underground machines. His plant is staffed by poor workers - who live in a dark, dank underground world beneath the machine layer. Meanwhile, we meet his son, Freder, the hero of the story, and Maria - the heroine.

Part two
Freder, the boss's son, decides to go underground where he sees the miserable conditions for the workers. John Fredersen has an evil scientist genius named Rotwang who creates an incredible robot. Fredersen has Rotwang make the Robot look exactly like Maria - who is a humanitarian leader of the workers and friend of the children.

Part three
Fredersen wants the robot Maria to incite the workers to violence - (so he gets rid of the workers who will be replaced by the tireless robots). We also get a story about Babel - and the men with plans, and the men who build these plans. Meanwhile, John's son is falling in love with Maria... then Rotwang grabs Maria and takes her back to the lab.
