We have the honor of showing these wonderful films in the 100-year-old Rivoli Theater, and we are continuing Williams Center Art House Tuesdays with Fritz Lang's Metropolis (1927):
"Metropolis is a 1927 German expressionist science-fiction film directed by Fritz Lang and written by Thea von Harbou in collaboration with Lang from von Harbou's 1925 novel of the same name (which was intentionally written as a treatment). 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. (UFA). The silent film is regarded as a pioneering science-fiction movie, being among the first feature-length movies of that genre." - Wikipedia
We also will be graced with an experimental live-accompaniment by Mike Haldeman, multi instrumentalist, sound sculptor, member of the band altopalo, and co-conspirator of many other uncategorizable musical collaborators.
