Metropolis
Metropolis | Thea von Harbou
9 posts | 6 read | 2 to read
This is Metropolis, the novel that the film's screenwriter -- Thea von Harbou, who was director Fritz Lang's wife, and a collaborator in the creation of the film -- this is the novel that Harbou wrote from her own notes. It contains bits of the story that got lost on the cutting-room floor; in a very real way it is the only way to understand the film.

Ugh! The superintendent here has closed all school activities to spectators (sporting events will continue with no viewers.) The high school musical was to open Friday. The director of the show is the stage manager for Disney Cruise & has a ship to catch so they‘re running the show Friday and Saturday (w/no spectators) and recording it so he can watch it. My kiddo is the lead Saturday night and I won‘t get to see it 😢

Megabooks I‘m so sorry. 5y

TheKidUpstairs I'm so sorry, that sucks that they won't get a chance to show an audience the results of their hard work. Hopefully your daughter and the rest of the cast are able to enjoy their time performing, even if there's no audience. 5y
Chrissyreadit I‘m sorry!! I‘ve been on pins and needles for the same reason. This weekend is the community youth theatre show and my daughter is Elsa in Frozen. I think if it was one more week we would be in same position. 5y
Chrissyreadit On another note- how amazing to get a director from Disney Cruises- thats like an audition!!! My daughter is hoping to work on a cruise ship in musical theatre. 5y
LiteraryinPA I‘m so sorry. That‘s really disappointing! 5y
Cortg @Chrissyreadit Good luck this weekend! My fingers are crossed Frozen is still a go and your daughter crushes her Elsa roll! The director‘s sister has been here a little over a week volunteering her time to the show. She‘s also a stage director on broadway. I hope these kids realize how fortunate they are to have this kind of experience! 5y
Cortg @TheKidUpstairs We‘re hopeful they can perform for the community when the ban is lifted. I hope this doesn‘t last too long! 5y
Chrissyreadit Wow! They have amazing access! Are you in NY! 5y
Cortg Nope, Maryland 😀 5y

Up next...

Metropolis 1927 (silent) starring Alfred Abel, Gustav Frohlich and Brigitte Helm

Fun fact, this movie is known as the first science fiction movie ever produced and filmed over 17 months, the production cost of this film damn near bankrupted the production company! 😱

2pts for #TeamStoker
#Scarathlon

JazzFeathers It is a fantastic film. I loved it. The book is even better, in my opinion. 5y

Silent film Sunday. This 1927 classic had some impressive special effects for its time. Now I have to read the book it was based off of.

Ich habe von meiner Oma gestern einen Tolino geschenkt bekommen.
Und schon , viel zu viele, Bücher rauf geladen 😅
Hauptgrund wieso ich mir so oder so einen zulegen wollte ist folgender:
Die Wohnung von mir und meinen BF ist leider nicht die größte. Deshalb dachte ich an den Tolino 😁
