Someone on my friendslist (and I apologize for not remembering the name) saw the most recent restoration of Metropolis and was impressed, so I went to a screening last night at the local film society. Amazing! See it if you get the chance. The film society director apologized for the quality of the print, but it was incomparably better than any I have ever seen, plus the plot makes much more sense with the additional 30 minutes of restored footage. Huge sections of the storyline had been cut, which explains why I never could make heads or tails of parts of that film!
