Fue una fuerza creadora en los comienzos del cine alemán, responsable de algunas de las historias y guiones más reconocidos de la época. Pero su rol fue minimizado por la historia, en parte por ser mujer y en parte por su abierto apoyo al nazismo.
Metropolis è molto più di un film: è un capolavoro che ha segnato la nascita della fantascienza nella storia del cinema, unendo architettura futuristica, riflessioni sulla lotta di classe e un'estetica visionaria senza precedenti. In questa puntata ci immergiamo nell'universo ideato da Fritz Lang e Thea von Harbou, dove la città è divisa tra la ricchezza opulenta dei piani alti e gli operai-schiavi confinati nei sotterranei. Scopriremo le curiosità dietro le riprese monumentali, gli effetti speciali pionieristici e il messaggio politico che ancora oggi risuona potente, invitandoci a riflettere sul rapporto tra progresso tecnologico e umanità. Preparatevi a esplorare una pellicola che ha incantato generazioni di spettatori e continua a ispirare il cinema di oggi. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
In this week's FilmBabble, the gents tackle the still-reigning sci-fi behemoth, Metropolis. Nearly 100 years later, Fritz Lang's awe-inspiring feat of cinema continues to challenge and excite conversation, even without much of the original footage. Does its reputation and towering legacy prove worthy, or has the last century ushered in enough new marvels for us to consider it eclipsed?Intro/outro music: Main theme from 'Mildred Pierce', composed by Max SteinerMETROPOLIS (1927), Weimar Republic, written by Thea von Harbou, directed by Fritz Lang, cinematography by Karl Freund and Günther Rittau, featuring Alfred Abel, Brigitte Helm, Gustav Fröhlich, and Rudolf Klein-Rogge

In 1918 the Monarchy abdicated. The country was financially crippled by the reparations enforced by The Treaty of Versailles and German democracy began.From 1918 until Hitler came to power in 1933 is known as the Weimar period. A time of political upheaval and artistic creativity. German Art and Cinema were thriving while the left and right were wrangling for control of the country. In 1927 Fritz Lang made what is to this day considered one of the greatest films of all time. It is based on a story by Thea Von Harbou, his wife at the time, who went on to collaborate with Nazi Party on multiple films. The ongoing influence of Metropolis on film is immense. Films like Blade Runner, Fifth Element, Frankenstein, Batman, and more recently Poor Things have all been influenced by it. And yet, the film itself was not a hit.Luckily we have two luminary experts to help us understand the film, the society it came from and the themes it portrays. The expertsSonja Fritzsche is a professor of German Studies and an author/editor for many books about science fiction.

Zdravo. Tokrat začnemo s serijo neprimernosti, pokomentiramo komentatorje in ugotovimo, da je komentiranje tekem naporen poklic. Pogovarjamo se tudi o filmih in sklenemo, da je treba verjet'. Ker je šnopc pa per ena pijača, pridemo tudi do 24. poglavja 5. knjige, a nas od dokončne obdelave zmotijo mozolji, knjige za samopomoč in … od Koprivnika žena.

Dass die Filmproduktionen den Wert von Berichten von Dreharbeiten, spektakulären Sets oder aufwändigen Reisen für die Vermarktung entstehender Filme erkannt hatten, ist an dieser Stelle schon deutlich geworden. So überrascht es nicht, dass die Vossische Zeitung den Regisseur Fritz Lang bei seinem Dreh zu dem Zweiteiler „Die Nibelungen“ besuchte, der erst 1924 seine Premiere feierte. Für den Film, der in die Filmgeschichte eingehen würde, hatte Fritz Langs damalige Ehefrau Thea von Harbou das Drehbuch geschrieben. Der zweite Teil mit dem Titel „Kriemhilds Rache“ gipfelt in dem Gemetzel am Hofe des Hunnenfürsten Etzel, wohin Kriemhild ihre Verwandtschaft lockt, um blutige Gerechtigkeit für Siegfrieds Ermordung zu erlangen. Colin Roß, der die Vossische eigentlich mit seinen Reiseberichten aus fernen Ländern belieferte, reiste also zu den Hunnen nach Potsdam-Babelsberg und gab einen sehr lebendigen Eindruck davon, wie Stummfilm-Dreharbeiten abliefen. Wer sich dafür interessierte, musste am 18. August 1923 für die Ausgabe der Zeitung schon 50.000 Mark berappen. Roß, der in diesem Podcast öfter mit seinem rassistischen Blick auf die besuchten Regionen, negativ aufgefallen war, bestätigt diese Geisteshaltung leider auch in diesem Text, mit einem despektierlichen Blick auf die Hunnen. Es liest Paula Rosa Leu.

As the 1920s became the 1930s, both the Lang-von Harbou marriage and German democracy itself teetered on the edge of collapse. In this moment of personal and political chaos, the couple made movies—and choices—that would define their legacies.For show notes and other supporting information, click here.
Through movies like Destiny, Die Nibelungen, and Metropolis, the husband/wife team of director Fritz Lang and screenwriter Thea von Harbou helped establish Berlin as Hollywood's one true rival. But their emergence as international celebrities paralleled the rise of a certain failed artist storming through the beer halls of Munich.For show notes and other supporting information, click here.
From the highest skyscrapers to the deepest catacombs, we're going high and low to examine Fritz Lang's highly influential silent science fiction epic Metropolis from 1927. Kyle Brunet joins us again as we discuss the film's metaphorical depiction of class warfare, compare the screenplay to the excesses of author Thea von Harbou's novel, and analyze the differences in the various versions of the movie. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and the beginnings of our pessimistic new show, Doomcast!! Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
Fritz Lang adapted the medieval German epic into this awe-inspiring two part spectacle, one of the great achievements of the silent film era. After the success of the massive two-part crime film Dr. Mabuse in 1922, Fritz Lang and screenwriter Thea von Harbou, now husband and wife, embarked on an even more ambitious project, an adaptation of the German national epic Die Nibelungen. Two years were spent in preparation, and shooting took nine months, which was a huge amount of time to make a film in those days. Once again, the result was a two-part film. Part One (Siegfried) tells of the warrior Siegfried’s wooing of the Burgundian princess Kriemhild, his services to her brother King Gunther in winning the warrior queen Brunhild, and his betrayal and death through the spite of Brunhild and the machinations of the King’s favorite knight, Hagen. Part Two (Kriemhild’s Revenge) tells of Kriemhild’s marriage to the barbarian king Etzel, and how she lures her brothers and Hagen to her court in Hungary in order to exact a bloody revenge for the death of Siegfried. Those familiar with the 12th century poem will notice that the film is almost totally faithful to its source. With only minor added dramatic flourishes, Lang and von Harbou succeeded in transforming the entire story, with its major and minor characters, into a magnificent visual spectacle. Most importantly, the picture recreates the awesome, elemental feeling of the epic, through an astonishing production design and a brilliant dramatic and visual strategy emphasizing the story’s mythic elements through monumentalism and highly stylized acting. The two parts combined have a running time of almost five hours, but the movie is never dull. At this point, Lang knew how to tell a story primarily through images—gone are the lengthy intertitles that plagued Dr. Mabuse. The huge sets have an abstract quality that aids the picture’s mythic, timeless mood. Every scene is carefully composed to convey a particular spatial sense. It’s amazing how Lang is able to make the material dramatic without ever shrinking the characters into mere individuals who have motives or psychology. These are larger-than-life emblems of human passion and struggle, and yet the film’s dynamism maintains its spell, keeping the action gripping and involving. The actors were somehow coaxed into performances that matched their gigantic surroundings. Best is Margarete Schön as Kriemhild, especially in her later incarnation as avenging angel, when she is positively scary. Die Nibelungen has had a controversial reputation among film critics and historians, some of whom see it as an example of a “fascist” style in filmmaking. But this is a tragic story where greed and envy lead to crime, which then leads to a cycle of vengeance that destroys everyone—hardly the celebration of victory that a nationalist ideology would be looking for. This film is truly one of the most impressive achievements of the silent era—an unforgettable, spellbinding experience.
In der Filmgeschichte gibt es gibt immer wieder Filme, die als Zeitbilder ihrer Entstehungsepoche gesehen werden, als würden sie die Stimmung, Themen, Leidenschaften, das Lebensgefühl etwa eines Jahrzehnts in sich verkörpern. „Ausser Atem“ von Jean-Luc Godard, „Die Fahrraddiebe“ von Vittorio de Sica sind Beispiele dafür. Und sicherlich gehört „Dr. Mabuse, der Spieler“ von Fritz Lang auch in diese Reihe. Die nervöse, verruchte, ekstatische und anarchische Weimarer Republik bekommt mit diesem zweiteiligen insg. 4 ½ stündigen Film ein Denkmal gesetzt, weshalb es nicht verwundert, dass die Erfolgsserie “Babylon Berlin” sich immer wieder vor diesem Stummfilm verneigt. Dr. Mabuse ist ein Meisterverbrecher, Manipulator, Hypnotiseur, Spieler, ein Mann mit tausend Gesichtern, einem weit verzweigten Verbrechernetzwerk, der die Börse manipuliert, mit Immobilien spekuliert und dabei weniger von finanziellem Gewinn getrieben ist, sondern vor allem von der Freude am Spiel. Am 27. April 1922 feierte der erste Teil Premiere in Berlin und einen triumphalen Erfolg. Für den Regisseur Fritz Lang und die Drehbuchautorin Thea von Harbou ebnete er den Weg zu weiteren gemeinsamen Großproduktionen. Mit der Filmkritik aus der BZ. am Mittag vom 28. April folgt für uns Paula Leu den Spuren des Dr. Mabuse.
Auch Film ist Text. Seine narrative Organisation macht ihn zur Literatur und verbindet den Film beispielsweise mit dem Roman und dem Comic. Der Film teilt als Kunstwerk außerdem zahlreiche Charakteristika mit anderen Texttypen. Das ist Grund genug, in diesem dreifachen Podcast in Kooperation mit der Karl Graf Spreti Stiftung in der Katholischen Akademie in Bayern auf das Jahr 1935 zu blicken, in dem sich Karl Graf Spreti aus seiner Heimat Bayern auf den Weg nach Indien machte. Frisch aus dem Studium hatte er das Angebot erhalten, als Filmarchitekt bei den Bombay Talkies Studios zu arbeiten, die im Jahr zuvor von Himansu Rai, einem frühen Star des indischen Films, gegründet worden waren und die zum Vorläufer von „Bollywood“ wurden. Neben und mit Spreti wirkten dort als Pioniere des frühen indischen Films der Regisseur Franz Osten und der Kameramann Josef Wirsching. Während Spreti 1938 nach Deutschland zurückkehrte, blieb Wirsching auf dem Subkontinent und Osten kehrte immer wieder dorthin zurück. Das achte Karl Graf Spreti Symposium beleuchtet ausgewählte Aspekte ihres Schaffens und ihrer Bedeutung und ordnet diese in einen übergeordneten (kultur-)historischen Kontext ein. Dabei ist auch nach der Relevanz der Filmindustrie für die indische Gesellschaft sowie nach Stereotypen über das Land im Deutschland der 1920er und 1930er Jahre zu fragen. Diesen Part übernimmt Dr. Georg Lechner, der einen Überblick über die historische Entwicklung Indiens im 20. Jahrhundert gibt und ausführlich auf den monumentalen Stummfilm “Das indische Grabmal” von Joe May, sowie spätere Neuverfilmungen des Stoffs von Thea von Harbou, u.a. “Der Tiger von Eschnapur”, eingeht. PD Jörg Zedler stellt den Bestand der Briefe Karl Graf von Spretis in den Mittelpunkt seines Vortrags; Briefe, auf die er gleichwohl eher zufällig stieß: Im Rahmen einer ganz anders gearteten Forschung, entdeckte er im Staatsarchiv Pilsen rd. 100 Schreiben, die Spreti zwischen 1935 und 1938 an seine Eltern richtete, während er als Filmarchitekt der Bombay Talkies Filmstudios in Indien weilte. Prof. Harald Fischer-Tiné, Professor für Geschichte der modernen Welt an der ETH Zürich, referiert zu den Themenbereichen Politische und soziale Umwälzungen im spätkolonialen Indien und die Entstehung von Bombays Filmindustrie (1900-1950). Die Karl Graf Spreti Stiftung wurde 2008 mit dem Ziel eingerichtet, die Außenbeziehungen Bayerns in wissenschaftlicher, künstlerischer und kultureller Hinsicht zu fördern. Sie trägt den Namen des deutschen Diplomaten bayerischer Herkunft, der in Ausübung seines Amtes 1970 in Guatemala ermordet wurde. Prof. Dr. Harald Fischer-Tiné habilitierte in Heidelberg und war danach Professor of History an der Jacobs University Bremen.

BIBLIOTECA SUBMERSA é a nova série de episódios do Podcast da Raphus Press, uma ironia bastante séria com o conceito de canônico e marginal, de popular e elitista, de aceito e não aceito, a partir das obras de autores que, aparentemente, tinham alguma influência (ou relevância) de certas obras ou autores no passado e que, hoje, parecem ausentes das livrarias, cadernos culturais, canais de vídeo na Internet. Nossa inspiração é Jorge Luis Borges e uma conhecida citação de Virginia Woolf: “Livros usados são selvagens, destituídos; surgem em grandes bandos de penas variadas e possuem certo encanto que falta aos volumes domesticados de uma biblioteca.” Acervo revisto de hoje: O apocalipse de classe média (“Metrópolis”, de Thea von Harbou) Obras citadas: “Telefone” e “A catástrofe da impontualidade”, de Luiz Nazario; “Metrópolis”, de Thea von Harbou; “The Nights of Tino of Baghdad”, de Else Lasker-Schüler; .

The Afterparty renouvelée pour une saison 2 La comédie d'Apple TV+ whodunnit vient d'être renouvelée pour une saison 2. Après cette première enquête réussie, l'inspectrice Detective Danne (Tiffany Haddish) repartira pour une nouvelle enquête dans The Afterparty. Une nouvelle série pour le créateur de Mr Robot Apple TV+ a commandé une saison de Metropolis, un nouveau drama mystérieux par Sam Esmail, le créateur de Mr. Robot. Il s'agit d'une revisite du film de Fritz Lang de 1927 qui était déjà une adaptation du roman de Thea von Harbou de 1925. Comment Sam Esmail va-t-il réactualiser ce classique ? De nouveaux noms pour la série Pitch Perfect L'adaptation en série par Peacock de la franchise Perfect s'étoffe un peu plus. Ainsi, ce sont Sarah Hyland (Modern Family), Jameela Jamil (The Good Place) et Lera Abova qui rejoindront Adam Devine (Bumper de Pitch Perfect). Bumper a déménagé en Allemagne où l'une de ses chansons a été un hit inattendu. Il tente donc de lancer sa carrière tant bien que mal à l'aide de son assistante (Hyland). Un départ dans Legends of Tomorrow (spoiler) Legends of Tomorrow n'a pas encore été officiellement renouvelée pour sa saison 8 par la CW, mais en tout cas, on sait déjà que Nick Zano qui joue Nate Heywood depuis la saison 2 ne sera pas de la partie. Son personnage a connu un très beau départ en tout cas dans le bonheur. https://www.instagram.com/p/CapdZj_Ft51/ Grey's Anatomy perd un docteur (spoiler) On commence par la mauvaise nouvelle de Grey's Anatomy, l'acteur Richard Flood qui était arrivé en milieu de saison 16 dans le rôle du Dr Cormac Hayes a rendu sa blouse cette saison dans l'épisode 10 de la saison 18. Il avait intégrer la série pour potentiellement engager une romance avec Meredith Grey mais le personnage n'aura jamais su gagner les faveurs du public. La bonne nouvelle c'est que Skylar Astin (Zoey et son incroyable playlist) débarquera pour plusieurs épisodes dans la saison 18 en jouant le frère d'une patiente de Jo. À voir pour plus de détails… Le reboot de Code Quantum a trouvé son acteur principal Ce sera Raymond Lee vu dans Kevin Can Fck Himself qui succèdera à Scott Bakula dans le reboot de Code Quantum. Il y campera le Dr Ben Seong, un physicien reconnu qui travaille sur le projet Code Quantum le successeur spirituel du Dr Sam Beckett. NBC n'a commandé qu'un pilot pour le moment. The Big Leap est annulée Le petit coup de cœur de l'année dans son optimisme et sa qualité artistique a été annulée par la Fox. Les danseurs de The Big Leap ne reviendront pas pour une saison 2. Bien heureusement la saison 1 se suffit à elle-même et reste disponible sur Disney+.

Written by Thea von Harbou in collaboration with Lang, it stars Gustav Fröhlich, Alfred Abel, Rudolf Klein-Rogge, and Brigitte Helm. Erich Pommer produced it in the Babelsberg Studios for Universum Film A.G. The silent film is regarded as a pioneering science-fiction movie, being among the first feature-length movies of that genre. This is a challenging film for some as it is a silent feature, however we certainly talk a lot about it. The Space Brains discuss the central themes, the conflict with Nazi Germany, the edited versions and the strong message of hope at the core. On the science side of things, we discuss real-life examples of underground cities and underground constructions.

This week on Total Movie Recall, we watched the Sophie's Choice of talking pig movies — Babe: Pig in the City. You might remember it as a sweet children's fantasy movie about cute talking animals, but that's just your brain trying to protect you from the harrowing nightmare that is this film. Dogs are hung from chains and drowned in front of us. Crippled Jack Russell Terriers are killed and teased with the sweet release from their worldly limitations, only to be cruelly pulled back into their wheelchair prison. Ryan and Steve started this movie as boys, but left it as men. Depressed, traumatized men. Babe: Pig in the City (1998) d. George Miller Starring: Magda Szubanski Elizabeth Daily Mickey Rooney James Cromwell Mary Stein When Babe accidentally puts farmer Hoggett (James Cromwell) in traction, the debtors come looking for their payments. In order to pay their debt, Mrs. Hoggett (Magda Szubanski) sends Babe off across the ocean to the city to demonstrate his talents as a sheep herder.

On today’s episode, I talked with Heather Reed, who picked 1931’s M or M: Eine Stadt zukt einen Morder, which was directed by Fritz Lang, and was written alongside his wife, Thea von Harbou who both worked together previously on his Dr. Mabuse series, the five-hour-long Die Nibelungen Saga, and possibly the most influential Science-Fiction film of all time, Metropolis. M starring Hollywood icon before he was one, Peter Lorre follows the story of Hans Beckert, a child murderer who is tracked down by both the German Authorities and the criminal underworld. M is considered to be the first in the serial killer slasher film genre. So sit back relax, and enjoy the show. You can purchase M here. Cinemallennials is a podcast where myself and another millennial are introduced to a classic film for the very first time ranging from the birth of cinema to the 1960s. Myself and my guest will open your eyes to the vast landscape of classic film as we discuss the films' performers, their performances, those behind the camera, and how they and their films still influence our world today.

«Die Mörder sind unter uns» lautete der Arbeitstitel von Fritz Langs berühmtem Film «M» von 1931. Er spiegelt die Ambivalenz, mit der Lang und Thea von Harbou die Jagd auf den Serienmörder Hans Beckert schildern. Die eigentliche Hauptrolle spielt die zutiefst verunsicherte Metropole, deren Bevölkerung von den Kriegserlebnissen und der Weltwirtschaftskrise gezeichnet ist. In der Adaption durch den Musiker und Theatermacher Schorsch Kamerun (Die Goldenen Zitronen) und die Komponistin Cathy van Eck wird dieses Verhältnis umgedreht und der Film zur Konzertinstallation, der Stoff zur Folie der Gegenwart.

Episódio XXXIII - O fantástico mórbido (parte 2) – “Metrópolis”, de Thea von Harbou “Os homens estão de pé no meio das praças Olham nos céus os sinais portentosos, E os cometas, com fogo nas asas, Rondam torres dentadas, ominosos” (“Umbra Vitae”, de Georg Heym) Trigésimo terceiro episódio do Podcast da editora Raphus Press: Era para ser uma breve interrupção na série sobre “Frankenstein”, esses espantoso mito moderno. Mas não conseguimos: ao tratar de “Metrópolis”, de Thea von Harbou e de sua estética, que propomos definir como “fantástico mórbido”, percebemos que tal obra, ao rechaçar a mistura como degradação e exaltar o martírio como purificação sagrada mesmo quando ele é apenas um efeito de suspense, descobrimos nele, no romance da autor alemã, o “Anti-Frankenstein”.

Dziś przedstawiamy Wam pierwszy odcinek miniserii o miastach w filmach science-fiction; o przestrzeni miejskiej, architekturze i wszystkim co związane. Przez sześć odcinków będziemy się skupiać na filmach w których miasto jest w szczególny sposób istotne dla fabuły, albo których wizje miast były wyjątkowo nowatorskie i/lub miały istotny wpływ na późniejsze filmy. Niejako inspirując się filmem, który dziś omawiamy, i w którym preludium trwa prawie 1/3 całego filmu, zaczynamy naszą dyskusję od omówienia ekspresjonizmu filmowego, przemijalności rzeczy materialnych, powiązań filmowców z Nazistami, a także—w końcu—o mieście w Metropolis. Bo miasto przedstawione w tym pierwszym pełnometrażowym filmie sci-fi fascynuje i zachwyca do dziś. Chodźcie wraz z nami na wycieczkę z oprowadzaniem po mieście i jego zakątkach, od lat 20-tych do współczesności! Najważniejsze omawiane filmy: Metropolis (1927), reż: F. Lang; scenariusz: T. von Harbou (na podstawie swojej książki); muzyka: G. Huppertz; w rolach głównych: A. Abel, G. Fröh, R. Klein-Rogge, B. Helm; prod. UFA/Parufamet. Rekomendacje: Kuba: Film Borderline (1930) szwajcarskiej awangardowej grupy filmowej Pool Group z Paulem Robesonem w roli głównej, w tej wersji ze współczesną aranżacją jazzową. Damian: Skrócona, pokolorowana i bardzo dyskotekowa wersja Metropolis w aranżacji Giorgio Morodera z 1984 roku.

Episódio XXV - A hipótese do fantástico mórbido (ou patológico) “Só então se reconheceu a presença da Morte Rubra. Viera como um ladrão na noite. E, um a um, caíram os foliões nos ensanguentados salões da orgia, e morreram, conservando a mesma desesperada postura da queda. E a vida do relógio de ébano extinguiu-se simultaneamente com a do último dos foliões. E as chamas dos trípodes apagaram-se. E a Escuridão, a Ruína e a Morte Rubra estenderam seu domínio ilimitado sobre tudo.” (“A máscara da Morte Rubra”, de Edgar Allan Poe) Vigésimo quinto episódio do Podcast da editora Raphus Press: Os caminhos do fantástico são como aqueles descritos por William Blake (em seus “Provérbios do Inferno”) como os caminhos do gênio – tortuosos, inquietantes, desconfortáveis, sem a retidão do progresso. E um desses caminhos apresenta a morbidez não tanto como tema, mas como instrumento de sentido dentro de um intrincado conjunto de fatores ideológicos, de efeitos de sentido. Minha hipótese é que, nesse caso, estamos diante do que chamo de “fantástico mórbido (ou patológico)”.

„Sie ist eine seltsame Frau, kein schlechter Mensch, immer bereit anderen zu helfen. Aber wenn es um Politik geht, dann sieht es in ihrem Kopf ganz wirr aus. Sie fällt auf alles herein, was Goebbels an Propaganda ausstreut“, schrieb der Schriftsteller Curt Riess über Thea von Harbou. Autorin: Christiane Kopka
Stichwort Drehbuch - Der Podcast vom Verband Deutscher Drehbuchautoren (VDD)
Im Klassiker von Fritz Lang, den er gemeinsam mit Thea von Harbou schrieb, gerät eine Stadt unter dem Eindruck eines Kindermörders in eine unkontrollierte Massenbewegung. David Schalko, bekannt u. a. für die Serien "Braunschlag" und "Altes Geld," adaptierte gemeinsam mit Evi Romen den Stoff für eine aktuelle Fernsehserie. Ines Häufler hat mit beiden gesprochen.
Auch wenn der Stummfilm um eine Reise zum Mond vor allem als Science Fiction-Film bekannt wurde, Fritz Lang verarbeitet die unterschiedlichsten Genres und Kunststile kolportagehaft, um vor allem eines zu gewährleisten: Spektakel und Unterhaltung. Hier verbindet Lang mit seiner ganzen filmischen Meisterschaft eine zutiefst moderne und zukunftsgerichtete Welt mit allem, was die kulturell vibrierende Weimarer Republik so anbietet. Wir unterhalten uns darüber, wie ungeheuer komplex sein technischer Zugang zum Kino ist, wie naiv er aber auch nationalistische Töne des verzerrten Kunstmärchens mittransportiert, auch dank seiner Drehbuchautorin und Partnerin Thea von Harbou, die so manche antisemitische Spitze in den Film mit einarbeitet. Insofern ist FRAU IM MOND eben auch ein Kind seiner Zeit.
Metrópolis de Thea von Harbou (1925) es un libro que fue escrito con la intención de ser llevado a las pantallas de cine por Fritz Lang. En este libro, conocemos a Freder, un joven que vive en la moderna ciudad de Metrópolis, un lugar con la más avanzada tecnología del mundo. Esta ciudad es un paraíso para sus habitantes, excepto para aquellos que tienen que trabajar día y noche sin descanso para mantenerla funcionando.

"Just you wait, it won’t be long. / The man in black will soon be here / With his cleaver’s blade so true. / He’ll make mincemeat out of you!" When “M,” Fritz Lang’s first sound film, opened in 1931, it was clear that Lang already understood how to employ sound to his advantage in telling his story. Unlike many early ‘talkies,’ “M” isn’t wall-to-wall talking; instead, Lang used it as a sparse tool to help catch a killer. He balanced quiet moments with abrupt sharp noises. He brought in off-screen noises that affected those on-screen. He had voiceover. And of course, there is the murderer’s whistling of Peer Gynt’s “In the Hall of the Mountain King.” Lang was a master of his craft, and certainly not a director who would be held back by the advent of sound. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our Lang series with “M.” We talk about the story of the film, the influences from the time on Lang, and what Lang may have been trying to say about the rise of Nazism. We chat about Peter Lorre in his breakout role and why his child murderer character is so compelling and, yes, sympathetic. We look at the way that Fritz Arno Wagner moved the camera and lit the scenes to capture Lang’s story (once again written by his wife at the time Thea von Harbou). We deliberate on von Harbou’s script and how well it worked in creating a fascinating police procedural but also how Lang’s research into killers may have affected some decisions in the character of Beckert. We talk about the sound and the lack of score with this movie and how the sound actually affected the frame size. We start a new segment called First Shot/Last Shot and look at how the director decided to start and end his story. And we discuss how the rise in Nazism helped some of the actors while hindering others. It’s a film noted as a masterpiece, the best of German cinema, Lang’s finest film. We certainly see the quality here and have a great time talking about it on this week’s show. So give this one a watch – it deserves it – then tune in!

"Isn’t it worth the loss of a hand to have created the man of the future, the Machine-Man—?!” Fritz Lang’s sci-fi classic has really been through the wringer since it’s premiere in 1927. After having been cut nearly in half then reshaped, people have struggled over the decades to restore the 2 ½ hour film to its full glory but to little avail. In 2008, however, a 16mm print of a horribly scratched copy of the nearly full version was found in Buenos Aires and the film was given new life. It’s since been beautifully restored and is a marvel to watch, even with the scratches. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we begin our Fritz Lang series with “Metropolis.” We talk about what the film is about, what works in it and what doesn’t, and try to deduce why. We talk about various political directions the story seems to take and how they fit in with the time and place when Lang and his wife/co-writer Thea von Harbou were writing this. We chat about the actors – notably Brigitte Helm, Gustav Fröhlich, Alfred Abel and Rudolf Klein-Rogge – and what they bring to the table. We debate whether Giorgio Moroder’s rock interpretation of the movie in 1984 has any merit. And we marvel at the stunning effects by Eugen Schüfftan, from the miniatures and stop motion, to the video phone, to the creation of the Machine-Man and the rings of light moving around it. It’s a film that has inspired countless projects since and is clearly an important piece in the history of cinema, and even though the story is riddled with problems and could likely be condensed to get the same thing across, it’s still well worth a watch. So check out this movie then tune in to this week’s show!

That alone piqued my curiosity here and while I won’t be running out to the cinema to catch this one, I think I may watch this some late night just to see how it is." Pete's Trailer: The Shallows — "So, it’s Jaws, but with Blake Lively, plus a bunch of Michael Bay low angle tracking shots. I have a feeling this is going to connect with me on a deeply disturbing level. I’m not proud, but at least I’m honest."
"Isn't it worth the loss of a hand to have created the man of the future, the Machine-Man—?!” Fritz Lang's sci-fi classic has really been through the wringer since it's premiere in 1927. After having been cut nearly in half then reshaped, people have struggled over the decades to restore the 2 ½ hour film to its full glory but to little avail.

La obra maestra y seminal de la dupla Lang-von Harbou no es tanto las películas mismas sino su protagonista homónimo: un espíritu indomable que mezcla psicoanálisis, nihilismo, tecnología, riqueza y seducción, para representar diversas formas de caos en periodos distintos de la historia de Alemania. Antecesor de los villanos de Bond y de una familia completa de las cintas de aventuras, Mabuse es también como los filmes de zombies de G. Romero, donde cada uno aborda un elemento distinto y característico de su propia época.
