RIGHT NOW: RESTORED CUT OF FRITZ LANG'S "METROPOLIS" STREAMING FROM BERLIN

A couple years back, someone found over an hour of lost footage from Fritz Lang's METROPOLIS, and they're finally premiering the new cut in Berlin, streaming online. Today. Right now.





Here's the direct link if the (French subtitled) video doesn't load or show up: http://j.mp/9SS92S

The dialogue won't be in English, but it's a silent film, so how hard can it be to follow?



EDIT: It *still* hasn't officially started. They're still doing interviews and whatnot. Oh my god, I'm so bored and confused. Hell with this, I'll probably just wait for the new DVD, or maybe when it hits the AFI Silver.

Yes. Yes indeed there is. People actually release DVD versions of the public domain stuff.

(Which is why it's so hard to find a decent DVD version of Nosferatu because there are so many truly shitty fan-made versions floating around out there that it's hard to tell.)
